settling in

Ah, dear readers. Thanks for your interest. It's taken me a month since the move to get back online (well, half back online; there's a reason there's no picture here) -- a long month of going tirelessly back and forth between the phone company and the internet provider, each one casting blame for my netless state on the other; neither one taking any responsibility or offering any assistance at all. I lost my patience early on. Or found it.

Because I had other things to keep me busy. One of which has a lusty cry and soft, golden hair. Details soon, I hope.
