We’re in New England this week.
Among other things — I’d forgotten how incredibly slow dial-up is. Once one has grown accustomed to broadband, it’s really difficult to make oneself sit down long enough for the pages to load.
(grrr)
Been a great trip, though, right up until yesterday afternoon — when I discovered that hiking half a mile out of the woods on a broken foot is hard to do. (On the good news side, the emergency room people were impressed by how tough I am.)
So. I’m coming back tomorrow night. On crutches.
Can’t wait to navigate the airport with luggage.

My apologies for not posting in over a week. The aftermath of the Iranian election has caught me up fully, and I’ve been unwilling (unable) to take my eyes from it. And what, really, could I add to the general …

Even knowing that any blog can be nominated by anyone (for reasons best known only to themselves), I’m still flattered. And totally unrelated to anything except pure naval-gazing, did you know that I hail “from the ‘Bush eats babies’ school …

Aawww! And you’re all alone, too!! 🙁 No one to help tote all that luggage around, no one to commiserate with, no one with whom to share the load. Well, shuckeydurn! Should I arrange for an ambulance service upon your arrival back here at IAH? Aawww! :(:(
On a more serious note, are you going to tell us how you broke your foot? Were you hiking all alone? Were you running from a bear? Were you climbing a tree to try and get the best possible angle for a good photograph? WHAAT? Will this story subsequently be made into a movie? WHAAT?
Hiking out in the woods? You sure it wasn’t actually a trip to Argentina?
I kid, of course. Sorry about your foot!
@Michael — hahaha! I really REALLY need to come up with a better story for this. Just plain “I was out hiking” sounds kinda dumb.
I think I need a narrative along the lines suggested by Goldenrod. Something that includes bears.
On the good news side, though — I really love hiking in New Hampshire — Especially when I know the temperatures back at home are over 100 degrees. LOL!
Sorry to hear about the injury – but you do realize that kicking tree stumps out of the way really isn’t a good idea, right? 😉
