interruption of service

I want to thank my recent readers and followers. I am sorry about not posting as much for the last few days. I have been in Sestri Levante, Italy, for orientation at work. I haven't been able to get online until very late times in the day which left me with little time to post here as I chose to talk to family and friends back in the States (some of you, actually!).

I'm very much ready to get back into the normal flow of things, so we should be ready to roll with a new blog on Monday -- taking the weekend off.
