May Monthly Wrap-Up

May is a great month!  Why you may ask?  The school semester is over.  I still have to do research, but no more teaching.  It is a wonderful feeling to get a break after a tough semester.  Hopefully it also means that instead of grading at night I get to read!  What else happened in May?
