I have been checking on Eddy of Banter frequently.... and yesterday he returned, saying that he will clear things up shortly. That is a relief to me. But I haven't heard from Drew lately, so I can continue worrying about him....

I've now used up a weeks' worth of journal links....

Oh yeah, the Atheist Link on the front page changed their address and didn't tell me... I had to find out the hard way. An atheist shouldn't make another atheist look bad, should he?

A day late and a dollar short... my piece for the Diary Collaboration is now up; I had originally decided to bow out on this one, but after reading the others' efforts, I decided to join in anyway. Entitled simple Racism, it is but two of the many sad stories that I could tell dealing with this subject. (This is gonna count as my February Essay!)

More importantly, I have not done a lot of work that I was intending to do today, so I'd best get busy with that now.

18:43: I did get a lot done today. I set up my appointment for my colonoscopy and got my taxes done. Come to find out, the forms that I was looking for have changed. They don't send out those forms anymore, but use a substitute form, which I already had.

Karen and I went for a walk after she got home, it was again a beautiful day. A little chilly, though, by the time we got out. My hips started hurting after about three blocks, but I kept going anyway. By the time we got back they were doing OK. I just need to get out and get more exercise.

I'm pretty well exhausted after doing the taxes, I'm going to get Karen out in the hottub and get to bed early. I slept way too late today and then spent most of the morning on that essay, so I need to make tomorrow productive.
