We&#8217;re all piling in the car shortly and taking a road trip down to Uppsala, about eight hours away.  The kids are very interested in seeing where I&#8217;ve been spending so much time this past year, and I think it will be fun to show them the university and also some of the city.  It will be a quick trip &#8212; we&#8217;re going down today, spending two nights, and coming back on Sunday &#8212; but I hope they&#8217;ll have a good time.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I know I&#8217;ll have fun, not least because I&#8217;m slipping away from the family tomorrow evening to see Pet Shop Boys in Stockholm!  The concert was announced just a couple of weeks ago, long after our trip was planned, and honestly, it&#8217;s not ideal timing.  Still, it&#8217;s one of my must-see shows, and I (obviously) have a very understanding husband, so I bought a ticket.  I&#8217;d be a liar if I said that wasn&#8217;t the part of the trip I&#8217;m looking forward to most.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First, I want to thank you all for your kind words and thoughts about Moa.
