Sorry I haven't been posting recently...
I’ve been working really long hours and fighting some illness (bubonic plague, perhaps), and I just haven’t had the motivation to go hunting for quotes. I promise, I’ll be back soon (maybe even tomorrow, if I don’t feel like curling up somewhere and dying when I get home from work tonight).
In the meantime, I’ve been getting back into “real” blogging...
