So, where have I been? Thought about just commenting, but figured folks deserved a full explanation.

July 4 was BAD. I was freaking out and had my headphones on at full blast. Even my Cannabis didn't help. So... I woke up two days later with one of the worst ear infections I'd ever had. Was absolutely miserable, and it was all I could do to do 140 character tweets. Pain led to depression, and I ended up sleeping for several days.
