I don’t know that I would characterize my situation as “fine”, per se, but things aren’t as bad as they could be. I won’t go into details here, but suffice it to say that my self-imposed exile was necessary for now. I’m in the process of making some fundamental changes in my life, and certain activities that I once enjoyed now prove to be painful. I’m not sure when (or if) I’ll be returning, but you all should know that I hold you all in the highest regard, and any blame for my absence lies with me, and no other.
