Hopefully resuming service

Just wanted to say that Irene did a number on us. Today, Friday, our power was finally restored. We lost power and running water on Sunday – that’s about 120 hours living the medieval life, sort of – candles, pitchers of water by the sink, eating only what we can grill (ok, so we were showering at work and friends’ and occasionally ate at restaurants and friends’ – not exactly medieval).

In any case, I hope to be able to get back into the groove of things.

Just saying.

UPDATE 22sep11: Alas, I spent the last few weeks since I posted this creating a ton of draft posts. Expect a steady stream of “published” posts, links to some interesting things, starting soon.
