Well, folks, here we are. That last paper I've been working on is now turned in! I can take my stack of books back to the library and be rid of them! I'm really excited about the prospect of being able to focus solely on my research and relaxing this Summer. I really cannot articulate that enough. A couple of my fellow grad students here have expressed an interest in learning more about my work, so I'll be glad to share as always. I do seem to be the resident expert on all things Texas Czech.
It's a loverly day out, and after I prepare my talk for Czech class tomorrow over how to make beer (we had to do a presentation over something) I will probably be working in the garden, putting in the new tomato and cucumber seedlings. Last week's hail destroyed my cabbage, so I'm going to have to till that under. More's the pity, really. I was looking forward to making kysané zelí with it. Oh well, the okra is doing okay, so maybe I can still have some of that. The poppies might still produce, but I personally doubt it. Maybe it is time for them to go so I can put in some melons for summer.
Well, off to the post office!

I'm glad to hear that everything's winding down for you, bro. Sad to hear about your cabbages, though. But we can still make the dish in question from heretic grocery store cabbages, right? ;)
By the by, what does "Mám Meč, Budu Cestovat" mean and what does it have to do with gnomes?
