web hosting fubar

My DSL provider has also been my webhosting provider... they are now in the process of outsourcing it and becoming a mere reseller of hosting. Hence my personal email is broken since Friday afternoon... I can read some things addressed to brian1789@lithic.net, but nothing sent to neo@lithic.net is getting through. So please use the former, or my work email, if you need to send me a message, thanks...

Polka-dotted

As I was warned, the background sunburn has faded, leaving me with just lots of the zapped red keratoses all over my face and scalp. I'm polka-dotted and sore and probably look infectious, although I'm not. I must have had a few hundred of these, waiting for their turn to rise up, as I'm covered in red dots. Just as well I wasn't sociable this weekend, as I'm unaesthetically pleasing. And I'm usually wearing a broad-brimmed hat and sunglasses and slathered in SPF50+ sunblock.

Still, patgreene is willing to hang out with me, and we went to see the movie "The Queen" last night (Charles was sympathetic, Phillip not). And I installed a new electrical circuit behind kitchen counters yesterday, and helped tenacious_snail build a new bed for pusifoot and _counterculture. And took the kids out bowling, this afternoon... I have to stay indoors, out of sunlight.
