No update from the trip that was today. Or at least not yesterday, bleeding into today as it now is. I was fully intending to, and I was probably going to do some other stuff with my night as well,…

Today’s Photos: Delhi & Kathmandu
Day three of my eighteen-day photo tour of India & Nepal (which before today hasn’t actually featured any India or Nepal) is up on the page. More to come soon, hopefully still keeping up on the daily pace even during…
Today’s Photo Uploads: Air Over Afghanistan
So I think I’m going to be releasing these roughly daily, which means I can keep up the pace of uploading photos without spending all my time on it and/or driving myself crazy. Today’s photos are from the 25th of…
Back from India, etc.

The Beat(ing) Goes On
I am still sick. Quite sick, in fact. No more sick, perhaps, but certainly no less. Today, possibly, my head will clear enough for me to begin a deluge of posts that, like so much nasal discharge, has been welling…
The Sickness
Been sick since late Thursday. Still sick today. Going back to work, still sick or not, tomorrow. This explains the lack of everything. The thing about being sick is that one suddenly has tons of unbudgeted time, but the energy…
