Happy New Year everyone! WordPress alerts me that xykademiqz has been around for 11 years, and it’s still kicking. Barely kicking, sure, but kicking nonetheless.

I’ve been busy trying to clear out the massive work backlog from the fall semester, and I’m almost—almost!—done, but shh, don’t say it out loud, lest someone should hear and bury me under a steaming new pile of mindnumbing obligations.

How have your holidays been, blogosphere?
