Happy Solstice!

(I was chastised for saying "Merry Christmas" instead of "Happy Holidays," so I'm going to go with the appropriately pagan and likely offensive "Happy Solstice" from now on.

I also have a few days off before next semester which I'm spending with my family. The difficult transition, i.e. the first semester here, is over, and I haven't done too badly ;-)
