Apologia

Update:

I started with a splitting headache, and ended up with a disappearing document. Which, as you might imagine, does not help with the aforementioned headache. Somehow, every word I've written on Ab Aeterno has up and vanished. This has never happened to me before, so I suppose I'm overdue. But it's immensely frustrating. You'll be able to read the column on Monday morning, and there ought to be an explanatory post up on Chud sometime today letting folks there know what the deal is.

Again, thanks for your patience. I'm off to apply a baseball bat to my hard drive.

Original Post:

Due to a combination of work-pileup and a SKULL-CRACKING headache, this week's Back To The Island column will be available to read tomorrow morning on Chud.com. It was either deliver a column I considered substandard, or take some extra time. I chose the latter. Thanks for your patience.

    Everything I've written about this episode has somehow been eaten by the internet/my computer in the middle of the night. EVERYTHING.

    This is beyond frustrating. Hope to have the column up by day's end, but no guarantees. Sorry, folks. This really is beyond my control.

    :( Man, that's really crummy! I'm sorry to hear about both the headache AND losing the article you'd written. I hope the headache goes away, and that the re-write isn't so bad.
