Back and in action
To any faithful readers who are still trying to check out my webpage (and haven't seen anything new for over a month), I owe you a huge apology. My home computer was having problems with the Internet connection, and public computers that I have access to have filters that block out the home page for my web host. I know that some really big things have been happening, both politically and socially, so I'm going to try to catch up a little bit. In the mean time, stick with me as I add things probably kind of slow for awhile, but I promise I'm still alive and I really appreciate y'all.
