Greetings from the salt mine

We're still here, and Ozan is still cute (see our newly constituted Picasa gallery for confirmation). I, however, am utterly ploughed under with work. As I have mentioned but not explained in detail, I'm (co-) teaching a class at lovely Bahçeşehir University in addition to my work at TIPPS. This is great for our bank account, but it's doing a number on yours truly. Hell, I'm so stressed I may soon look 30 instead of 22! Anyway, that's why posting is light. More when I get a breather.
