this totally crept up on me!

The fact that it's May, I mean! When did this happen? I mean, seriously, April went by in a flash of hot weather, ballet flats, and fragrant flowers. And now it's May? I feel so behind, like I missed something. Anyway, no real updates for May, since May is basically a barrage of end-of-the-year prep: the commencement of our graduating-class activities, the wrap-up of our research paper, the general end of teaching. Then there's Mother's Day, Memorial Day, flip-flop time, our trip to Broadway, some birthdays...sheesh. May is gonna be a busy, busy month.
