I'm here . . . sort of

I'm back, but I can't say I'm really back to blogging. After a week without any news whatsoever, I feel as if I was on Mars, not just a mountaintop. It will take me a day or two to reorient myself. I was thrilled to read the posts Don Quixote did in my absence. I knew he'd write things that were interesting, thought-provoking and engaging. My only problem is that he set up mighty big shoes for me to fill. I'm going to read a lot for the rest of the weekend, and try to assemble my thoughts so that, by Monday, I can make at least a pretence of following the quality posts DQ did.
