Contrary to popular belief, I am still alive and … well, let’s leave it at alive. In between finding a warm place to sleep, attempting to fix my pickup, spending 12 hours in the emergency room and getting harassed by hospital security guards, I haven’t had time to update my goings-on. Not that my goings-on are all that fascinating. But it’s a Monday, and a rather nice, warm Monday morning so I thought I would say “hi” to anyone who cares (or even doesn’t care — hey, I’m not picky.)
