And I\u2019m really really sorry that I haven\u2019t posted. We\u2019ve been moving and all, and weren\u2019t able to get our internet hooked up until today. I have been feeling extremely bereft and disconnected.<\/p>\n

But now we have internet! Hallelujah!<\/p>\n

I have spent the last three days working like a dog to get us settled into our new house. (Yes, it is a real house, with real rooms and no one above or below us and a back yard with grass and bugs and a street address that doesn\u2019t require an extra line.

I\u2019ll be back later with a post about my first impressions on Ave Maria. It\u2019s gonna get real, y\u2019all. I\u2019m coming from Sin City to MaryLand, okay?

I missed you guys. I hope your collective Christmases are going wonderfully. I also hope that you have all developed utterly disproportionate obsessions with the Pogues like I did last year. I love them so much. Also, it is the perfect music to dance erratically to, for those of us who have dancing non-skills. Give it a try. Here, I\u2019ll help. This is one of my favorites.<\/p>\n
