It's been a few weeks since we last posted and that's no coincidence - it's April. On my side of things, April is a month of Moot Court team-selection (which eats up about a week) and then the end of classes and preparation for finals (which eats up all other time). On Hanneke's, it is a month of Ph.D. and seminar prep, and some taking over of household things that I no longer have any time to do (you might suspect I'm exaggerating here, but I'm not).
This semester looks like it will end busily but smoothly. I have 3 finals this semester and 2 paper courses. I've written one already on the CSI Effect (for Law and Psychology) and the other is a commercial speech topic (basically the First Amendment for corporations). I enjoyed writing both but the CSI Effect might be a little bit more pop-law than I am into and the commercial speech topic I'm not really writing to publish. Then again, my last article was on Google and quoted Ghostbusters, so maybe I'm a closet pop-law guy after all.
May will be a busy month and I suspect it will be a month of transitions. I'll start at the Court in May, stop being a student, move to a new apartment, and begin writing articles of my own volition (instead of for classes or a job). Things will go much as usual for Hanneke for at least a little while longer. But, we will now have a yard to tend to.
It should be an interesting year.
Since David asked about the mock digs in a comment, here is a little more info about them. Above is a picture of one of the sites we made before it is buried for the kids to excavate. You can see a firepit on the right (circle of stones) with ash and burnt bones in it. 
This picture is from Nathan's school. You can see that we got to dig in actual dirt instead of sand, which is easier in some ways. Here people are digging out a rectangular hole for us to lay the site into.
