Posting will be sporadic --- please pardon me

Just now recovering from 4-day bout with the intestinal bug. The incision has come open by itself; I see the surgeon tomorrow so he can try to patch it up. Went to Mass Sunday [didn't realize I had the bug until too late to cancel the 6:45 am ride] but shouldn't have; at the homily I had to leave Mass for somewhere I could put my head down.

Summary: I'm too busy being sick and in pain and being a good patient to put a lot of attention here right now. I'll drop in whenever I can, please be patient and do not forget me.
