I apologize if you felt alone, neglected or abandoned last week due to my absence; occasionally I like to disappear without warning — it keeps me virile and unpredictable.

Actually, I needed a few days off from blogging and email to get caught up on a bunch of work, and more importantly, for the sake of my me(n)tal health. The only contact I had with the outside world was my girlfriend, because she insisted on returning home each day after work, and my Mom, due to the fact it was Mother’s Day, and also because she tolerated being sliced-open so the doctor could yank me out — yep, I figure she earned that 10-minute phone call. Thanks, Mom.
