For all concerned parties (see the comments section on my last entry), I haven’t dropped off the earth, merely traveled a small expanse of it. Right now, I’m in the UK, in London, specifically, and I’m having a fabulous time. Why are you in front of a computer, then? you may ask, and I don’t blame you. Folks, I’ve been stricken with what is either the worst allergy ever, or a very terrible cold, perhaps picked up on the plane. I won’t bore you with the details, but suffice it to say that it’s difficult to to do much sightseeing when your breathing abilities compare to that of a 90-year old emphesyma patient. Nevertheless, I’m trying to make the best of it by relaxing in beautiful Richmond, where we’re staying with supremely gracious hosts with the world’s most adorable baby girl. Her presence alone nearly makes me want to procreate immediately. I assume that I’ll recover eventually and make it out to some pubs for some serious consuming of spirits.
