...hasn't tried to catch up on two months of posts.
In early October half my company got laid off after an internal board-level coup. I still have anger over this.
In the end of October I got mugged. The biggest side-effect of which is data-loss (my frustration with the various cloud services "helpfulness" in merging data means I hadn't recently backed up my phone to anything other than my work laptop... which was also stolen. Oops.) So, if you think I have your address and phone number, you may be incorrect. If you would like me to have this info (giving me an address results in a chance at an illegible holiday card) please email me: estro at the domain name surrealityinc.com.
Heh, shortly before the mugging I discovered I accidentally had collected a sizeable collection of dog and cat butt pictures (I only realized this when I went to look for a non-personal image to attach to an email and those were all I could find. I am not actually a BOFH type IT person... but developers occasionally earned a fuzzy butt pic for their issues. I have some regrets that this carefully curated collection is lost.

layoffs and muggings
Unclear from this post whether you were part of the half that got laid off, though I think you weren't?
A long long time ago I didn't quite get mugged, but the side effects of that attempt included bad dreams and anxious feelings about walking around outside and things like that for a while, even though I didn't lose any stuff. Any of that for you?

I get where you're coming from on the "way the hell behind" on things. Glad to know you're still alive. Are you still collecting graffiti pics, with or without dog and cat butts?
