I’ve been posting at ilind.net more or less regularly for 26 years, beginning in early 2000, if I recall correctly (although it might have been the following year).
I think this is the first time I’m reluctantly putting it aside for more than a few days.
The greatly edited story is that I watched the weekend’s storm from a 6th floor room at Straub Hospital.
Two attempts to complete an endoscopy failed, and I’m hoping to be admitted to a medical center in San Francisco for further diagnosis and treatment.
I might be moved to grab the keyboard now and then, but I need to avoid that little daily background stress and concentrate on my health.
I know you all understand and I appreciate all of your support.
And don’t forget that this remains a good place to search for interesting tidbits from the past z25 or 26 years.
