I’m OK… I know I disappeared Wednesday, never to be seen or heard from again. (Well, until now.)
I had some problems with my mother (see the Pit thread for more information) that necessitated my leaving as soon as possible. I am in Houston for the time being, but I’m not sure about where I’m going to be after that. (It’s contingent on some stuff, so I don’t know if I’m going to stay here or go back to Minnesota, although if I do go to Minnesota, it’s going to be temporary.)
My presence in chat and on the SDMB is going to be limited by the fact that my laptop died, and although I’ve found that the local medical library has free unlimited Internet access (with a good connection, no sign-ups and no filters), there’s no guarantee when I can come in and use it. Hopefully, I will be either getting a new computer or I will be back in MN with my old puter before too long.
I don’t have AIM on this computer (and since it’s a public computer, I can’t download it), but I will see y’all from time to time (when I can get here to get on. It’s open during the holiday weekend, at least.)
I don’t know why I didn’t post to this thread when it was started (probably sulking in my tent or some such), but I do want to tell MsRobyn to hang in there, and I hope her life takes a turn for the better soon. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
