I'll likely be going dark for several days to a week

[danceswithgary]

In more ways than one. I just started a 6-day cortisone pack for a major pain flare and, from experience, my temper will be (hell, it already is) appalling for about a week. Little things that I can usually let slide become major issues and my editors go offline. It's better for all concerned if I back away from the keyboard, my flist, (and meta) and focus on attempting to make headway on my challenge fics. Gary's lucky he'll be out of the house most of the time and then leaves for Minnesota on Saturday for two weeks.

In short: I'm here, I'll likely make the occasional comment even shorter than usual, and there's the SGA Newsletter. That'll be about it unless the short story fairy waves a magical wand and fic falls out. Hmmm, is that the fairy for short stories or the short fairy for stories. This is why the hyphens that drove my former beta crazy are my friends.

Please, drop me a PM if I haven't responded to something needed or as expected.
