Hello

Hi all. I'm back. Yes, I know I vanished for a while there, though I'm pretty sure I said I wouldn't. My bad.

Though, I did have some good reasons. One of which involves me being in Chicago visiting The Other One (by the by, I must be the only person in the world who can go to the third largest US city and run across a acquaintance from That Small Place Somewhere Near the Twenty-First Biggest US City. The odds on that have to be really, really, long, but I don't know what they are, since I'm not too good at math and that answer probably isn't on the Internet.) The other reason involves two different computers experiencing two entirely different sets of difficulties. In the past week, I've spent at least 2 hours in contact with customer service and tech support representatives from Company That Will Remain Nameless Because I a) Would Feel Bad Dissing Them Online and b) Also Don't Want To Give A Free Advert To Them. (The other day, I think I fixed the more worrisome problem on my own. Then I felt really tech-savvy for fifteen minutes before double-checking to see if I actually fixed it. Jury's still out, but I think yes, so I did an internal victory dance anyway).

So, basically, I was away from the Internet and the blogosphere for about 96 hours. I know, I'm surprised I'm still alive too. But, I'm back. :)

Anyway, enough about me.

How've you all been? Very well? I hope so.

So, do tell, has anything interesting happened around the blogosphere lately? Any interesting posts, new blogs, fantastic gossip? (Side note: I'm actually not sure what kind of crazy potential drama there could be breaking out all over the Internet, but if I missed it, I'll be very sad, so please, let me know.) (Other side note: In case this was in any way ambiguous, this is definitely an invitation to slam me with tons of linkage. Yes, feel free. Please do.)

Have a fabulous day. :-)
