This week is crazy. Hell, this month is crazy. I know a lot of you are booked up with events and engagements. After all, here in the US, April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month; Crime Victims’ Rights Week is April 21-27. Lots going on. Happily I had a lovely family weekend before things really let loose. For those of you celebrating, I hope it was a joy filled Easter and Passover (we do both in our household, which means lots of joy, even more food). Here’s some of what I managed to read in between all the festivities since last we spoke:
