...is like any other month, I suppose...except for the "no journal entries" thing...

(I sorta swiped that title and opening line from my other blog - the Disney one...)

Anyway, I've missed a whole month of posting occasionally about books, about politics, about medicine/health care, or about music. This was not exactly my choice; on December 29, 2011 (the day after my last entry actually), I took a spill on my drive while taking out the garbage, and I broke my ankle. Emergency surgery, 9 pins, two screws, a plate, and a couple of cast changes later, I still am limited in mobility and can only put a little weight on it.

How did this stop me from making journal entries, you might ask? Well, I haven't really worked till last week, and I haven't really been "by myself", which is how I prefer to write these entries, till today! That's been a good thing, because I can do very little for myself with this limited mobility. But I haven't been able to get on the computer to do this stuff, and when I have been on the computer, there's been so much important things to catch up with, I just haven't gotten to blogging.

Don't know if I'll get back to it with any regularity this month. Probably not. I wasn't all that regular with entries anyway. But eventually...

So that's my story, and I'm sticking to it for now...
