Hey all, I’m going to have to take a break from blogging until probably early next year. I could give you vague excuses (“for medical reasons”) but that is unnecessarily mysterious. Might as well tell you all, if only so that friends reading this know why their email volumes suddenly dropped down to next to nothing…
I’m having eye surgery (actually hopefully successfully “had” by the time this is published) and will not only be grounded for a couple of months, I will be restricted in the reading/typing I’ll be able to do. Therefore I’ll only be doing the priority work (not that I don’t consider this a priority, but I have to do what that I get paid for first!) If a huge issue blows up and you guys need to know about it, I’ll try to get something out, but most likely everyone can enjoy the break from my rants and then I’ll see you at Surfaces and pick up things around then. And yes, I plan to SEE you all there!
