Taking a powder

[tia_tarina]

Due to a poisonous dose of Ambien (if you know anyone currently taking Ambien, ask them to find an alternative-- please), a series of very nasty mis-understandings and a two-day hell-bent-for-leather truck drive, I am currently hiding out in New Mexico.

David has hopped a flight to convince me to come back and should be arriving in about twenty minutes.

We should should be back in Texas ('cuse me while I spit) in a day or two.
