When the phrase “radio silence” doesn’t make me think of Thomas Dolby<\/a>, it makes me think of a bunch of guys in a submarine turning off all of their soundmaking equipment<\/a> and engines and floating quietly in the water looking nervously around waiting to see if something bad happens, expecting something bad.<\/p>\n

So, I’ve been MIA because I’ve been waiting for some test results from the doc that turned out to be nothing but had a small chance of turning out to be something and I sat around with my noisemakers off for a week, worrying. I am developing a very very annoying [to me] habit of becoming irrational about my health during periods of great stress. Now that I’m back into rational-land [or “illusion of rational” land which will have to suffice] it’s something I’m officially working on. <\/p>\n

Or will, when I get back from Boston, and Puerto Rico, and Ann Arbor Michigan, and New Hampshire. I know, I know “Gee, Jessamyn can’t imagine what in your life could be stressful!” Today I can mostly laugh at myself, yesterday things weren’t seeming so funny.<\/p>\n

But despite my seeming hibernation, a lot has gotten done. I helped install an online catalog for a public library. I used a reel mower to mow my lawn. I sent out some letters. I almost finished a book. I took a lot of people out to lunch in the past week or two and got taken out to lunch myself. Yay for lunch. Today I get in the car and drive down to Massachusetts. Check me out on this list of fancy people<\/a>! I hope to be checking in here a little more often. Thanks, as always for checking in with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
