What a week...

I notice that it has been a week since my SAUSAGEMAN posting and what a week it has been.

I haven't had a chance to get too much writing done. To begin with my newly restored computer ran fine...until Saturday morning. On Saturday i came down to the basement to check e-mail and lo and behold - a blank screen. Rebooted and the damn thing ran for about ten minutes then locked up tighter than my prom date's knees (you know who you are!).

Took it back Monday, begging them to just fix it.

Also throughout the weekend my daughter began to show signs of Strep infection. She's been home from school all week and MISERABLE! Man, oh man.

This evening we got the first signs that my son has Strep as well. Hooray!!

During the week I have managed a few pages on Nothing's Made to Last and have reworked a whopping whole chapter of Loremaster.

On the plus side I did get the computer back late Monday and after a little fiddling the network, printer and everything has been working ever since.
