A Momentary Pause

Stack of grading to wade through, so I must set aside voluntary blogging for professional obligations. In other news, today is my wife's birthday. I did have a lengthy and screamingly witty riff to share with you all on this extremely humorous subject, but alas I've been anticipated in this intention, and have been informed, in terms that leave no room for dubiety, that it's pretty much worth my manhood to go down this road. And, well, gee, folks, I'm kind of attached to those specific appendages, so...um, well, I guess there's nothing more to be said. Certainly nothing funny. Nothing at all. Nope. The word? "Mum." 'Nuff said.
