Blogging has been light...

...due to the difficulties of typing with a cast.  I get it off on October 10th; this date has become the entire focus of my existence.

I'd like to thank drangelo for putting up with the whining.  I'm not done yet.  :)

Additional updates:

• TCW has just completed (well almost completed) a major battle, in which Bellatrix LeStrange was captured.  It was loads of fun, even though Marcus only had a small part.  He did, however, get to cast a Patronus!  Now we see the benefits of being a brilliant Ravenclaw with umpteen NEWTs under his belt, eh?


• I spent the first half of this week in Chicago at the IPC Midwest conference.  I really enjoy the time I spend working on industry specifications with IPC.  It makes me feel like my work is important.  :)


• We're planning a vacation with drelmo in October.  Cruising to Hawaii.  More on this later.


• Next China trip should be coming in early November.  Sorry, Mom.


• Our cleaning person has moved away and we deperately need someone to come help us.  Suggestions are welcome!

ETA:  Oh, and my coffeecorner address has been down for a couple of days, so if you're trying to contact me via email, you're hosed.  Try blurker (at) gmail.com instead.
