I swear I still live and breathe. Give me a couple weeks to get through a particularly henious cycle of training and forgive me for all the genious things that I deprived you of reading by not writing them in the first place. Sorry for all of you who have tried to contact me…my laptop has been in and out of the shop. I’m slowly trying to rebuild my digital life and respond to all inquiries as to where I’ve been, what I’ve been doing, etc.

Nellie and I go in for our ultrasound (finally) on Friday. It’s been a nightmare trying to get this worked out through our insurance. We finally just pulled the “We’re concerned about extra fluid in the placenta” card, so they couldn’t deny it any longer.

I’ll be in San Antonio Oct 02-06 doing some academic training, so expect more of the glorious nothing that you’ve come to know and love from me. I do have a quirky ability to deliver it with a tenacity matched by few. Consider yourselves lucky to even know someone who can do nothing better than almost anybody.

All said, things are well. We’re getting pretty sick of looking for a home church, so last week we just said ’screw it’ and listened to our good friend Bob and his communities’ podcast. It was great stuff. Listen to it here.
