I've participated in two podcasts for the CWSource, and already, people hate me. Wheee! Obviously, I must be doing something right.

Ariel has requested RSS feeds. I'm working on it. But you must remember, Ariel, that I'm much more a word person than a tech person, so it might take a while. (Unless anyone has advice for how to implement a feed on blogger?)

We're now entering the gray expanse of winter here in Chicago -- cold gray skies, bare gray trees, everything leeched of life and color. What's worse, you learn to fear bright days here -- usually, when the sun is shining in January of February, it means it's too cold for there to be any humidity in the atmosphere, so you're looking at the sort of weather that freezes your eyelashes together if you blink too much. Good times.

So far we've been lucky -- nothing arctic -- but it's only a matter of time.

In other news, jury service has been postponed -- I'll be leaving town soon after I'd be called, so I've got a three-month extension. We'll see what happens.
