Tiptoeing through confusion

Things here have been pretty hectic lately. I am sad to say we've had to deal with the less pleasant passages of life and have been consumed with that. Also I am scrambling to get this DIS stuff taken care of as the registration deadline nears. I got socked with graduate tuition that my job does not pay for so I am trying to sort that out to the best of my ability. Lots more stuff but I am just too tired to lay it all out on the table right now. So, faithful readers take heart, I'll be back soon enough, cheekier and snarkier than ever...after my batteries recharge.
