I suppose I should explain a bit about what's going on in my life at the moment. Those whom I know read this thing care (and have said they care) so I won't prevaricate or pass things off...for right now. I don't like talking about being sick or feeling bad. To me, most of the time it strikes me as whining and self-pity (or very close to it) and I have issues with that, just like I will NOT cry in front of most people. I have my quirks, I know.
Gem, Yorr, and a few others know I'm chronically indisposed. And some of you know I've been very ill for a few months but only able to go see my Nurse practitioner on Tuesday. Since then I've been a rather scarce in the room, the reason being Naomi put me on a lot of medication and at the moment my system is in shock. I'm on strong antibiotics for 2 weeks and the other medications make me groggy or sleepy a lot of the time. And when I'm groggy, sometimes I read books instead of getting on the internet. And Sis and Bro sent me three wonderful books for my birthday (along with GW, which I haven't yet gotten on Mom's laptop [it's not recognizing the CD-ROM]), so I haven't been lacking good reading material. Those who haven't read the Artemis Fowl books by Eoin Colfer, I heartily endorse all six. They are certainly not just for children. Caselberg is also an interesting writer.
For those of you who have me on your Yahoo (or have my Yahoo on your MSN), it says "sick, in bed, may or may not be here" and that's true. However, if you need to get in touch with me, drop me a message and the next time I'm up, for however long, I will look at it and respond. You may have to be patient since it may take me a while (even a day) to get to it, but I will. Just ask my Sis and Bro. I can't seem to resist answering when I'm aware and on the laptop.
There are a lot of RPs, SLs, and RP partners with whom I miss writing and playing. I hope that soon I'll be able to rectify that, at least in part. We'll just have to see, won't we? It upsets me to find Maelstrom empty so much of the time. Nainya has been thriving a bit more, which isn't a bad thing.
So this isn't exactly an LOA, as I'm still haunting and floating around. On the other hand, it may not always be easy to get in touch with me. Sorry...I'll be around more when I can (when I'm not so sick or out of it).
