Yup, that's me. Absent. For far too long, and in too many ways.
Let me start by apologizing for not blogging. I'm sorry for not blogging. Life has been in the way of Internet activities recently, and the amount of downtime I have at work has dramatically reduced. I've also been really sick, with a head/chest cold for two weeks and now just a constant, hacking cough that remains no matter what I take and keeps me awake all night (plus scares the shit out of other people, who are convinced that I do indeed have Black Lung).
The next two weeks promise to be more of the same, only worse. I'll be working long hours (hopefully no more than 55 hrs/week, but I can't promise that) and to top it all off Mark's friend M. and his new girlfriend are going to be in town (read: staying in our spare bedroom and being entertained by us, or by Mark, anyway) from Wednesday through Sunday.
So yeah, I'm absent. But don't feel bad. It's not just blogging. I feel like I'm absent from the rest of my life as well. I'm feeling guilty about not spending enough time with my dog!
So yeah, you probably won't be hearing much from me this week or next week. If you do, it will probably be stressed ramble. And unless you would like a play-by-play of two weeks worth of boring ass meetings, that's probably just as well.
