not dead (yet, not quite)

Gah, sorry everyone. Thank you atwowaydream for reminding me this site still exists. I hadn't forgotten, exactly, but the more time passes without an update, the harder it is to slink in and make my excuses. Call it extended hiatus or chronic brain cramp... I have very little personal computer time these days, which adds to the difficulty.

I hope to catch up on reading everybody one day.
