OK, fine.

Well, I am really terrible at keeping secrets- about myself, anyway. I've already been telling lots of my friends, so I figure I might as well share the news with you, too. Just like this blogger, this blogger, and this blogger, I will be having a baby before the year is out! I'm only six weeks, so it's really early, but by telling you I am now at liberty to complain about how tired I am this time (nine years after D) and wondering how I will handle my classes in the fall (when I am due mid-semester) and reporting my valiant efforts at chairing a search committee and being really moody. We're all very excited- including D, who will finally get to be a big sister at age nine. Wow- that's a BIG age difference. So maybe my new (if temporary) blog name should be "what a tenured, pregnant professor shouldn't be doing..."
