Acute tendonitis in both hands means I am not supposed to write or type for the next few weeks, which is driving me CRAZY. Just as I was getting bloggy again, too! But I'm working behind the scenes on the site redesign and a potential Girlbomb zine, so I hope to have more news to report soon -- as soon as I can type without pain. In the meantime, I apologize for those unanswered emails and comments. I'm looking forward to being back to writing soon...

A zine? Seriously? I mean, really? I just finished reading a book about zines and was talking to someone else about zines and now you too?
I thought about emailing you but then I thought that would just be silly. I mean, my writing to say "Hey, I heard you're in pain and I hate this for you" would be like my writing "Nanananana, I can type and you can't."
Hmmmm . . . I guess leaving a comment is not unlike my thumbing my nose in your general direction. "Look what I can do!"
Does my adding a "Get well sooner" make up for the rest? I hope so.
BTW, a certain mutually mothering woman suggested I send you some simple exercises, not that you won't be shown the same stretches and such by some medical professional but when I slow down this weekend I will be sending you an email. And I promise--I will not ramble endlessly about things to which you cannot respond. I'll wait to write that email when you are feeling oh so much better.

Satia always says things so damn well. I just wanna say 'ditto' or 'what she said' but that is so lame. And the Seinfeld link is great.
I'll call to give you my get well wishes to keep you from having to deal with the keyboard... how about that?
