MBC is alive and kicking, although it was a hell of a week. When I don't have the energy to contribute to a political thread, something has gone wrong. In this case, it was a simple cold that turned nasty, led to a visit to the urgent care clinic, and ended with a bunch of horse-strength antibiotics.
Thanks for thinking of us, iSm.
Oh, and I completely forgot I have a live journal so you aren't likely to learn many new factoids from it. I should really start writing in it again. Thanks for finding it for me, Zapppop!
edited to add: OK, I updated it.
