Happy New Year to everyone, and long overdue holiday greetings and all that to all the Zuskateers out there. I didn't intend to be away from the blog for so long, but life has interfered. Same old story: migraines, illness, family health issues. A wicked cold before Christmas that just wouldn't go away...though, you know, when I have a head cold, I don't get migraines. Ever. Anybody else out there experience the same phenomenon? When I suffer from allergies I still get migraines, but not when I have headcolds. Anyway, once the cold was gone the migraines came back. Then mom got sick, and went in the hospital; now she's home, and needs someone with her. That would be me, migraines and all. None of any of this is conducive to blogging.
So, it's not a gung-ho start to 2007. My new year's wish for all the Zuskateers is that you are beginning the year in good health and happiness.
See you around...sometime soon.
Zuska is the kick-ass alter-ego of Suzanne E Franks. When not dispensing Zuska's wisdom, Suzanne can often be found gardening, reading, or having one of her thrice-weekly migraines.

"Zuskateers"! I like that. ;)

Sorry to hear about the hassles. Hope you and yours feel better soon!

Let's hope this is just an instance of getting some of the health-related crud out of the way at the start of the year to free up the rest for other things. (And I'm really hoping you'll be good to go for SBC 2007 in a couple weeks!)

so sorry you've been indisposed. in case you haven't seen the article below in 'inside higher ed', it's interesting, as are the comments -- which are almost coherent. almost a discussion. or something. about gender and the blogosphere.
