photo love

I'm plugging away at a chapter that absolutely must be done by next week, so I won't be writing an update today. Still, I thought I might post a few photos as a way of sharing some of the wonderful things that have filled this year and kept me away from Blogger.

hiking along the Scottish coast...

and discovering WW II bunkers...




and old ruins...




and getting lost...



and coming home to sweet home Chicago...




and spending a day at one of the best places on Earth...
(and seeing the Cubbies win!!!)




and spending time with family...




and getting lost... again...




and indulging in classic Americana...




and Jane Austen...




and barbecues...




and table tennis...




and music...




and laughter...




and love...

Ummm, hello 2009?

So, I haven't posted anything in 2009. So much for daily blogging. I would like to promise that I will be posting every day from this point forward, but realistically I know that probably won't be happening in the immediate future. (Though it remains a steadfast goal.) There are good reasons for all this though: travels and adventures and that oh so pesky dissertation I am trying to submit by the end of the year. Good reasons indeed.

But reasons (excuses) aside, I will be back... and soon!

much love
