I am still here.  Haven’t done a lot of blogging lately, mostly becuase my attention is being paid to Ryan, and Jess, and doing a lot of offline writing.  Yes, I have started my memoirs.  Yes, I know what that sounds like.  I’m about 7,000 words into a planned 60,000, and I’m finding the writing to be a relaxing and easy experience so far.  Updates to follow.
