Back next week!

I received some very nice emails since I announced my break from blogging. I don't know where you all came from, but I'm convinced that none of the messages I received are the product of a prank (although, my friends are certainly of the type...) . Thank you kindly.

I thought it was only fair that I post a quick note: I'll be back next week. Please return!
I am not about to pull a Captain Oates.*

* Note to those who don't subscribe to Quote of The Day for whatever bizarre reason: Captain Lawrence Oates' last words were, "I am just going outside and may be some time." Oates never came back.
