I've been writing online for thirty years. One of these days I might actually get good at it.

    Falling behind

    I'm getting to the point where just keeping up is beyond my dwindling capacities. I'm not sure what's going on, but I suspect I'm not going to like it when I find out.

    Anyway, I apologize for having been such a lousy correspondent this year.

    Having gone wandering off somewhere

    Of late, I seem to have been overtaken by events: my health has taken a turn for the worst, I wrecked my car, and the guy they hired to help me out at work has moved away. (Another guy has drawn the short straw.) I'm still alive, but it's not something I much feel like bragging about.

    A night at the beer garden

    I mean, I'm not allowed beer anymore, at least not until I get off some of these damnable medications, but our little table had massive fun discussing Jenga, photography, classic and modern weaponry, beer (of course) -- and ponies. Apparently they'd read my stuff. Who knew?

    Regular visitors will remember that I'd asked the estimable LeekFish to knock out a sketch for my, um, OC. I posted it here, and it was well received; our own Twifight Sparkill came up with an idea, and heck, there's no reason you shouldn't see it here, especially since she's revised it to give me a more, um, scholarly look. (The LeekFish original is still in the sidebar at

    Back in the Real World

    I think I would rather spend two weeks in the Everfree, trying to avoid everything that can kill me, and in the Everfree I assume everything can kill me, than one more minute in a hospital room.

    That said, their definition of "on the mend" doesn't quite coincide with mine.

The train to somewhere · 5:46am Mar 9th, 2014

Last weekend was spent moving gigabytes of data from an obsolete computer to, well, a computer that isn't quite so obsolete. (I learned early on that there's always a better machine coming out next month. Or next week.) The joy of not crashing every hour is somewhere between immeasurable and infinite.

Despite that mood upgrade, it has not been a happy time for your humble scribe, with minor automotive issues and major plumbing problems on my plate, and no suitable spells to correct either, but since I can't so much as levitate a broom, it may be just as well. And meanwhile on the story front, the oft-threatened Honeymoon Chapter has appeared -- at least, the beginning of it has. If you thought things were static and talky before, you ain't seen nothin' yet.
