Pardon the Absence

I see that I have only published one post anything this month. There are two reasons for this: first, I have mostly been reading politics lately (radical left politics to be exact) and don't want this to become an exclusively political blog; and second, I have been extraordinarily busy. I have a post in mind that I will write in the next day or so. Next week my schedule should open up and I will have more time to devote to this blog.
