Yep, I'm still kicking. For a variety of reasons, I've obviously fallen off the Wake wagon and gotten way behind on this project. The good news: I'm not giving up. I'll begin reading and posting with renewed spirit on Joyce's birthday, which is coming up on Monday.
Of course, I won't meet my goal of finishing the Wake in a year. It's looking like I'll now be wrapping up sometime in August, which maybe means I should change the name of the blog to "Sixteen Months in the Wake." But I won't.
So yeah, see you again in a few days.
