Nope. Not dead.
Hello to all. I haven't died or been trapped underneath fallen debris, having to eat bugs and drink rainwater to survive.
I've just been, and don't take offense to this, dealing with more important things. i.e, my mother, my father, my mental health.........
Plus, my computer got zapped by a lightning strike about a month ago and up until last week I couldn't be bothered to call the internet service guys to my house. And I've been staying with my parents while my mother has her massive round of chemo and they'd cancelled their internet to instead pay for the super-deluxe cable package (showtime, hbo, cinemax, starz, and all the british channels too, its pretty awesome) this makes more sense because Mom spends most of her time in bed watching movies and all Dad ever did on the computer was play Bookworm and Sudoku.
I will never in a million years catch up on posts so I'm afraid you'll just have to forgive me if I jump into an response entry without knowing all the details and sound like your crazy aunt who said something off the wall because she was out in the garage having a cigarette and missed half the conversation.
And let's just pretend that instead of doing what I've been doing, I've been somewhere totally awesome doing something absolutely fabulous. Let's pretend my excuse for not staying in contact is that I've been climbing Mt. Everest!!!! Hells yeah!!
Except, shit, that wouldn't work, they probably have Wi-Fi in Nepal.
