Continued apologies

[GrinReaper]

Hi all,

I'm beginning to sound like a cracked record, but sorry I haven't been around much lately.

Excuse 1: I've been really busy at work preparing for Conjure, the National Science Fiction Convention, which I will be blogging live from for our arts blog, Articulate. (http://abc.net.au/news/arts/articulate).

Excuse 2: I've been a bit out of sorts since having a sebaceous cyst cut out of my back. In my very own real life horror story, I could still feel the doctor cutting me after he'd given me the maximum allowable dose of local anaesthetic! Not a fun way to spend a Friday morning, I can tell you.

But after Easter, I should be back on board.

And for the science fiction, fantasy and horror fans, please drop by Articulate April 13-17 and check it out!

Thanks, Grin

Ooooo, sebaceous cyst. My Dad used to suffer from those. Nasty critters.

You could turn it into a Doom tale. 

Seriously, hope everything heals up well, Grin.

Hey, Grin, find any teeth in there? Perhaps a twin that went missing? A hairball? Not fun, but def of weird and obssesive interest to this group. 

Good luck with the blogging. I hear that can hurt, too. Bring salve!

Sorry to hear you've been in the wars, Grin - I've had a few things done without the benefit of anaesthetic and know how painful it can be.  Dunno about you, but I thought the stitches were the worst, because the needle seems to drag as it's pulled through the already raw flesh.

Looking forward to seeing more of you after Easter then.  Hopefully I'll be more involved this month, too.  Seems to be a very hectic year, so far, all round.
