These are the Days of the Dead, and I am, as you know, a sculpted skull on a stela at Copán. We are busy celebrating, and I have begun an enormous writing project. I will be back, although not always on my original schedule of one post a day. Curious newcomers are welcome to browse my archives, and my old site. Esoteric minds wishing to follow me can find me at my research site.
Axé.

Good luck and temporarily farewell (as election fever overtakes me, too!)
Gracias Scratchy! I’ll be around and commenting, just posting a little less!
I got really sickened by the Rachel’s Tavern attack on E. Kitty Glendower.
Also, this blog was first a way to exist outside the grasp of my X the abusive one, a way to regenerate post Reeducation, and a way to think around the small minded administration of my main department. That means its work is more than half done.
You are a good friend, my friend. Take it easy.
I do like what I am reading here. The archives are their own treasure. Thank you for visiting my site.
Enjoy!
I’ll do what I can to follow you around. Life is a beginning to resume though ashes are everywhere, including my lungs.
Graz, y’all! As you can see I have not actually stopped posting – I am just taking a certain Step Back.
