In about an hour and a half I will return to work after having been off for most of the last three months. My spinal surgery was a success, I'm all fixed up and ready to get back to life.

Of course, that'll mean less blogging, but maybe it'll mean that when I DO blog, the entries will be better, more worth your time, and more interesting.

The main point of this entry is to thank those of you who made the past three months so much fun. The blog has really been a fun hobby, and hearing from those of you who read it has given me something to look forward to and a way to distract myself from the paychecks not coming in.

So thanks. You guys are, as all the cool youngsters like to say, "dah bomb." Or maybe it's just "the bomb." No, I'm sure there's an affectation to the way it's spelled... "da bomb," maybe? Something like that.

Each of you is an explosive device of some kind, I'll just leave it at that. Your comments and e-mails during my recovery period have been a lot of fun. Thanks, sincerely, and from the bottom of my heart.
