Back on the Grid

Welcome back to your real life everyone. <sigh>
I cannot, for the life of me, get my ass back in gear today. And an out-of-gear ass is the last thing we all need this morning. Adjusting to life after a long weekend off is proving to be difficult. But at least I'm finally "back on the grid" so to speak, since my parent's house was essentially devoid of internet capabilities [note: I did not say it lacked computer capabilities...more whining to follow]....i was in Michigan, NOT Siberia as one would expect....though you wouldn't know that with the snow, and the sub-zero wind chill, and the kossacks and whatnot. I tried to send two emails this weekend....nuthin doin'....I even poked the goat with an extra sharp stick....nope, still couldn't get the modem to work.
Boy, do I have a busy schedule of web surfing to make up for.
