Technical Issues
I'm back! I was experiencing technical difficulties. Damn SQL server socket! But thanks to the very, very, very handsome boyfriend's help (which involved driving to where the server is and bitch slapping it) we're back in business!
More good news: We spent this weekend in New Hampshire and saw lots of friends and played croquet, went hiking, sat in a hammock, almost tipped the hammock (frame and all), played new board games, journeyed on the lake in the paddle boat, sat in front of a wood fire, and generally had a fabulous, relaxing time. Much love to the Stuarts for hosting us and feeding us.
More more good news: Hurricane Dean didn't damage the Caribbean island I'll be flying to on Friday.
More more more good news: I'll be flying to the Caribbean on Friday and I'm bringing loads of recent fiction to read (a pleasure I've been denied the past 7 weeks). A good book+beautiful ocean=happiness.
