Well gang, it's been a few weeks since I've broken radio silence. I'm not ignoring you, this isn't some complicated tough love experiment. Without turning this into a (yet another) woe is me missive, I shall endeavor to merely describe why I've been negligent in my blogging duties.
Starting the weekend after Christmas I've been knocked flat on my keester with some manner of "digestive" issue (yes I'm trying to be delicate here). Multiple trips to the doctor and many diagnostic tests have been unable to ascertain exactly what the problem is, and I've gotten slowly better. But there are some lingering issues and my doctor has me on a gluten-free, dairy-free diet that includes avoiding chocolate, spicy foods, acidic foods, fatty foods, anything that tastes good...and worst of all coffee. Sigh.
The good news from the bout of who-knows-what is that I've lost a lot of weight and am reveling in my new svelte figure. Please bear in mind though that this is NOT a diet program that I would reccomend.
On top of that we're experience transportation woes here at the homestead. It's finally time to put the 1992 Toyota Camry out to pasture, and last night on our way to the UND basketball game a stupid high school girl who was driving too fast (and probably texting) lost control of her car, slid across two lanes of traffic and the median and smacked into our only remaining drivable vehicle. More hoop jumping, phone calls, and annoyance. But we're both OK, though our only mode of transport at this point is deaf-dogsled, we'll let you know how that works out.
So to take our minds off our various worries, let's watch a clip from an old South Park episode, yes Petey the Sexual Harassment Panda. I dare you to not let this song get stuck in your head.

Well, this is not good news from the DDBG front. I hope things are going better now, since more than a week has passed. Health woes, car accidents and I'm sure, the cold weather are all taking a toll. Let's hope for brighter days ahead.
(And wouldn't you know, I just HAD to click on the video and spent an entire two hour x-c ski trip humming that blasted tune.)
Hope you are feeling better. I'm looking forward to hearing about your garden prep soon! You can mail order the seeds - no car needed.
