This isn't news, so don't get excited. Just wanted to say there's a mountain of email that I haven't replied to, dating back to the beginning of March. Last 6 or 7 weeks have been uber-busy, but I'm gonna get around to sending out overdue replies a.s.a.p.

::sigh:: And my internet connection has suddenly developed the sporadic habit of freezing at the instant I hit "Send" on an email in Outlook Express. Why why why? Webmail works fine. Screw you, Bill Gates.

That is all. ("Well, that just wasted fifty seconds of my time," you all say. I know, I know.)
