I do exist

I've got into a weird phase where I have too much to post about, so I end up not posting any of it. I've also been busy, though; just the past couple of weeks I've started feeling up to having a social life and generally coming out of the weird funk I've been in since Pesach. I'm cautious about saying this, because in the past I've had periods of a couple of weeks where I'm full of enthusiasm, and then fall back to spending most of my time staring into space. And of course not keeping up with stuff while I wasn't coping means that there's a huge backlog now of obligations, social as well as volunteerish and work related.

It's also the time of year where everybody has parties, to enjoy the sunshine and say goodbye to their friends before disappearing for a month or more of Swedish summer vacation. So I've had a very sociable time when I wasn't posting.

And tomorrow I'm going on a trip with the international researchers to Mariefred, an old town with a castle. And at the end of the week I'm going to England to see cartesiandaemon and hatam_soferet and pseudomonas and my Australian uncle, aunt and cousins. Take that, evil geography! Yay for being sociable.
