Just shy of 50,000 visits in June, making it a bit slower than May but still second-best all time. Nothing like a couple of links from Kevin Drum to send the hit counter spinning, that's for sure. July is shaping up to be slower, back to April levels, but that's OK.

So far, I've managed to keep about the same level of blogging nearly six weeks after Olivia came along (new picture, btw). She thankfully seems to have inherited her daddy's above-averge sense of mellowness, which helps. I'm sure all bets will be off when she starts teething, but hey, who am I to borrow trouble? Life is good and I'm enjoying it.

Anyway, thanks as always for dropping by and making this a fun place to be. Top referrers are beneath the More link.
