Another year flies by

I awoke today with a strange feeling that today was somehow different. It ambushed me like a thief in the night - I'm 36 today. Literally old enough to be your mother, and because of that I am of course tired and so I will keep today's post short. The best gift of all is one I have for you: we are on the very brink of getting one of the best online sources of all - the Grove Dictionary of Art. I don't think it quite excuses me from doing nothing the rest of the year, but if my charge is, in the words of Mr. Mahler, to make us "world-class," then we are one step closer!
