Personal Update:7/1/06

It probably seemed like I dropped off of the planet for awhile there.  Sorry!  Things have been pretty crazy the past two weeks around the Monroe home.

To begin with, we squeezed in a quick trip to our most-favorite-place-in-the-world: Yosemite National Park.  The occasion? To introduce our Italian son -- Massimo -- to one of the seven natural wonders of the world before he returned to Italy (which is where he is presently, vacationing on the coast with his father, mother, and brother).  We already miss him!

Then... I've been waging a HUGE war against "trackback" spam.  It was getting so bad (75+ per day), that I had no choice but to remove the trackback capability from my for the time being (SORRY!).

And finally, I threw out my back and had to lie flat on the floor for a few days (VERY difficult to blog like that).  I'm all better now, and as you can see from the posts above... I'm back in the swing of things.

Thanks for your patience.  And thank you for continuing to visit and post here at Paradoxology!

Sorry to hear about the back problems. Hope it's nothing too serious ... I've been told that hiking in rough terrain is beneficial to the back ... In any case, good to have you vertical again!

Thanks, Carlos!

Hiking rough terrain...really? That's fascinating. And I'm planning on doing some of that later this month. Cool.
