18 month pause...

Yeah, so I took an 18 month blog pause.  Whatever, not too much has happened.  Well, actually, I did get a teaching job, so there's that.  Oh yeah, and my firstborn child arrived last August, so I suppose that was bloggable material.  But whatever.  When those things were happening I was... um... not feeling gassy.  This morning, however, I feel a huge bubble somewhere between my brain and my abdomen that just might need some Gaseous Admission...
