March 31, 2016: Not Back In The Saddle, But Closer

Apologies to everyone with whom I dropped correspondence earlier this month. I got a little sick on the cruise, thought I had gotten better and kept going . . . and somewhere along the line it turned into a big sick. In early March, I was diagnosed with pneumonia. I spent a couple of weeks of miserable, coughing weakness. (Protip: Do not catch pneumonia. Just say no.)

Things are better now, but it will probably be at least another week before I'm putting in anything like regular hours, and for a while I will be more conservative in my travel plans.
