Slacker on Board!

OK, OK, so I've lost consciousness for more then a month. Don't buy that? How about I've been vacationing in Thailand? Had a tour of duty with the Army? Been busy recounting votes for Washington's govenor (whoever that may be)? Writing up a review for the book club? (Ha!) Nothing so dramatic. Just caught up in the usual Thanksgiving/Christmas rush of materialistic free-for-all: buying, addressing, stamping, wrapping, chowing-down, present exchanging, carol singing, partying, good-will-to-men extravaganza called the holidays. A great time was had by all. Now it's a typical bleak, cold Tri-Cities winter day and reality is starding to descend. Darn it all! Note to self: New Year's Resolution: Be a Better Blogger!
