It’s hot. It’s smoggy. It’s summer in Beijing. Beijingers might call this “fog” but if so, then I think it was the “fog” which just killed one of my plants. No matter. It’s that time of the year when your correspondent likes to take a little summer vacation. Keep in mind in my line of “work”, vacation is defined more as “time to catch up on and/or try to complete dissertation chapters, overdue writing projects, promised book reviews, and next year’s syllabi.”
But one thing I won’t be doing too much between now and the end of August is blogging. I know many, if not both, of my readers, will miss my irregular updates but fear not…I’ll be back on September 10.
