Yeah, when the aloes send up a stalk, they don't mess around! And the bigger the aloe, the faster they seem to grow.
My mini Stapelia has a few buds in progress, and my Thanksgiving cactus (a collection of cuttings at the moment because my big one gave up on life) has buds too. Nothing else at the moment, but I usually get a stalk or two from my big Mosaic aloe over the winter. We'll see if my Firecracker aloe follows suit with the year-round blooming. It's always fun to see the pots lined up on the windowsill, whatever they do.
