Life: Back in the Saddle Again

Relief… Three weeks without my god-given right (or hard-won privilege) of high-speed internet access in the convenience of my chilly basement has finally ended. Exiled to Hawaii, where I could only steel 10 minutes from an overfull conference internet room, I returned only to discover that my roommate’s attempt to cancel our phone (what Luddite still uses a land-line, anyway?), but keep the blessed DSL, had been boggled: there would be no DSL homecoming for Justin. Tears held at bay, I decided I could pass time reading a book, or some such thing, and go to a library to use the internet, how sad.

But anyway, all that’s behind me now. Now I’m safe and sound in the cold comfort of my own home, with my stereo playing my NPR, a short walk from my fridge with my food, breathing my clean Montana air… wondering if my Buddhist practice might be flagging a bit of late.

ps. for those with ‘Personal Buddhist Websites’ : amongst my 2000 emails to catch up on was one from The Open Directory Project Buddhism Personal Pages:
