Posting has been few and far between here for the last week and a half. I thought I'd be able to connect from my laptop when visiting my parents, but I wasn't able to use the cable connection there for some reason.

I do hope everyone is having a safe and happy holidays. I'm looking forward to 2007. We have a three week trip to Taiwan coming up in February and I'm waiting to hear if I got a job in Beijing (got the offer, then had to take an editing test), so we could be moving over sometime in the next few months. It looks to be an exciting year.

Will resume regular posting here later today ...
