Guess who's bizzack

Just in time for the holidays, I have returned. The last two months or so have been packed with about as much change as any single person could handle, but I would never be kept away from The Republic by mere chaos. The reason for my absence is the only one close to excusable: due to some serious webhost issues, it was technically impossible for me to post. Even though this problem was out of my hands, I do apologize. Just as the weblog was starting to get on its feet, it was immediately knocked back down like the Great White Hype that it was.

Here's a brief summary of what you missed. We moved into a new place, bought a car and the dashing fellow pictured below joined the family.

More details and news to follow, I'm sure. It feels good to be back.
