Creak and squeak. This blog is rusty. I haven't written a thing in over 7 months.

I think I have good excuses. The least of which are the purchase of a house, the sale of a house, a move, getting kids settled, getting *me* settled, and getting life in order in a short amount of time.

This is a "ping" so to speak. Going to see if I can write anything over the next few weeks. Or I might just hang this whole thing up if I find I can't.

But let's see if I can throw some shorter (less editorial pieces) down here. Stay tuned.
