UD is...
"Salty." (Scott McLemee)
"Unvarnished." (Phi Beta Cons)
"Splendidly splenetic." (Culture Industry)
"Except for University Diaries, most academic blogs are tedious."
(Rate Your Students)
"I think of Soltan as the Maureen Dowd of the blogosphere,
except that Maureen Dowd is kind of a wrecking ball of a writer,
and Soltan isn't. For the life of me, I can't figure out her
politics, but she's pretty fabulous, so who gives a damn?"

UD Packs Up ...

...her little family unit tomorrow and leaves for two weeks at what today's New York Times calls "Delaware's way-gay Rehoboth Beach."

Incredibly, a Singalong Sound of Music (faithful readers know UD's attachment to this event) will take place at RB while she's there. Talk about a bloggable moment. UD thanks her sister for noticing the announcement.

Her kid will join les UDs at Rehoboth for the second week, on her return from Brazil and Argentina.

Blogging will retain its feverish pace, even on the beach.
