Almost back to 100% health. It's good that I recovered quickly because I have some important things to do next week.

How are you holding up? Remember - if you see a light, do not go towards it!

We have a mini-vacation next week - it's Liberation Day (yay!), the first and foremost among our national holidays. The culmination of many decades of bloody struggles.

You know, stories and poetry from before the Liberation are always very dark and depressing, dripping with despair and barely concealed anger. It was a very intense historical period (the decade between 1870 and 1880).
