Where did I leave off?

I've had substantial difficulty accessing this blog given my long period of inactivity. I haven't been writing due to a preoccupation with my Master's degree which was recently completed, as well as other time consuming aspects of my life.

Provided I can get back in here, I will continue the old travel blog style posts, because I know most of you hate my politics. I'll probably do a dump of the stuff I never got around to posting from Barcelona, and then I'll document the trip Kate and I recently took to the Pacific Northwest. Anyway, provided I can get back in here, stay tuned.
