Well, things have been in a bit of an uproar (one of the reasons I sort of turtled for awhile). Dad finally passed away from pancreatic cancer in February, and after taking care of him for so long, it feels like an alternate universe now that he's gone.
Also, I got laid off the other week -- publishing is dying fast.
So really it hasn't been too great, but every day above ground is a good day, right?
Thanks for the warm welcome, good to see your e-faces again
