Spring always seems to translate into a great deal of change-especially for me. I apologize that the blog has sort of been stagnating these last few weeks...
There are several reasons for this...
1. We've moved out of town and thus no longer have reliable high speed internet access. This is such a pain. I bought a wireless national access plan from Verizon because the sales lady in Spokane assured me it would be way faster than dial up and well, it's so not. The program that runs the wireless national access connection also disabled several parts of my notebook computer-which has made using other wireless sites extremely challenging...if not impossible.
2. See #1.
3. I've been focused on several majory points of resolution in my life-some of which involve my accident of 2002 and some of which will dictate where we're going to live the next several years. I'm also making some major decision as to what I'm going to do with my life-get a masters in creative writing? Continue to pursue public health research opportunities working with mobile populations? Become Mikey's favorite employee?
Oh yeah, and I will be posting my final column for Stonewall on May 2, right here. I hope y'all enjoy it...

Hey can you hear me now? :-)
Sorry I couldn't resist. Verizon's wireless comes in two parts -- There's broadband which is pretty fast (if it's available where you are at the moment) and national access which is basically dial-up speed when broadband connection is not available. I have one and broadband works in major metro areas.
Also I believe you have vzaccess manager. You might want to run this program only when you use the verizon card and not the wifi. I find my laptop's wifi manager does a better job at connecting than vzaccess manager. You can uncheck "Run VZAccess Manager at Startup" in Tools, Preferences under the options tab in VZAccess Manager.
Oh by the way, love those pictures you took of the countryside. Still trying to get back to painting but the basement is still a little chilly.
