		<description><![CDATA[Hey. So once again, a blog becomes like a letter you haven&#8217;t written for far too long, until there&#8217;s too much to catch up on and you don&#8217;t write it at all.  Especially if you&#8217;ve been in something of a writing drought. A few of  my favorite things that&#8217;ve happened lately, in no particular order: [...]]]></description>
