I'm back for a bit.

I'm still alive and even somewhat improved. Spending a couple of days in bed works wonders. I'm still not 100% but I have the energy to do a bit of web surfing.

One thing that was making the pox even more miserable was my allergies. This crap would have to strike right when the air is thick with pollen. I was able to provide myself with some relief by jury-rigging an air filter by taking the front off my window air conditioner and putting one of those high quality furnace filters over the air intake.

Thank you to everyone who left a comment or sent email, especially to Syndi for the nice pictures.
