Just a quick note to apologize for not having been around so much lately.
Although the Cubbies managed a glorious win on Opening Day (EAMUS CATULLI!), Fortuna has slipped spot_the_dog one of those crazy curve-balls she’s so famous for and he’ll be more or less stuck warming the bench for the next little while.
Will still be checking in now & then as time and circumstances permit, though – I’m not that easily got rid of. 
Have laptop, will blog. Any time, any place
Keep calling “Bullshit!” to idiocy, incompetance and dishonesty wherever it manifests itself; keep calling attention to the various shenanigans and machinations of politicians and fellow bloggers alike; and most importantly of all keep your sense of humor.

Bill, I have read a lot of your comments on posts here the last few days and I am actually a little concerned for you. Are you unwell? Lonely? Angry? Under the influence of drugs? Insane?
Please look after yourself and takes your meds as prescribed — Spot will be around again soon and I’m sure he’ll enjoy playing with you.

Stay safe, Spot. You are, after all, stuck with the sandgropers.
April 8, 2009, 10:57 pm at 10:57 pm
Keep your snout up, dog.

Eicks! Whatever it is, I hope it’s not serious, and you’ll be back soon. Judging from that pic, you are a boxer-lover, and we b-l’s need to stick together.

Spotty, you bad dog, don’t you DARE fall in love with any of those pretty nurses over there, tell them not to flirt with you or I will come tear their hair out
But really – best of luck and hurry back.

Love that attitude – love the picture too!
I hope you’ve got some good vets looking after you there and you get fixed up soon.
Best wishes!
D.B.

I add every good wish that is possible for you. Your “Simple Gifts” post was lovely.
Tell Fortuna no more curve balls!

1am & can’t sleep so thought I’d check in (another “borrowed” wifi conx, if you don’t recognize the IP) and thank you for your kind wishes.
Busy day tomorrow but have a post in mind for after that. My Sis is here & has my passwords and has offered to help, hope you don’t mind, but she’s 100% trustworthy (even if she DID vote for Obama :~| )
Take care, and play nice.
April 14, 2009, 6:01 pm at 6:01 pm
She voted for Obama?!?!1
