At the end of 2011, after having taken a break for quite a few months for reasons that I stated, I started posting again.  I was motivated to post by joining a website called Blogher, I think it’s called.  (I’ll clean this up later.)

But then I caught a bug during the Thanksgiving holidays, from which I didn’t recover until January.  Then there was a motion for summary judgment to which I had to respond by a certain deadline (I think it was March), with which I was consumed because it’s a pretty big case.  (I won, btw.)

And then there was a motion to continue that trial, to which I had to respond, and there were other cases on which I was working, and then I found out that our servers were hacked in a MAJOR way, including ADHD Attorney.  (All my links in all my various blogs are broken, but I will be fixing them shortly.)

So I haven’t been blogging.  And for me, what happens when my routine is interrupted, is that I don’t know how to get it back.  A lot of time will go by before I “get my groove back.”

The Captain fixed our servers.  He cleaned out the cobwebs, chased away spiders, and even obtained some new hardware on which to install my websites.  But my flow was interrupted, by the hack job and the illness and the huge case that will be going to trial on June 18th.

So I’m currently thinking that I might be back.  We’ll see.  I want to be back.  I just can’t be back if there are going to be continued interruptions.

I caught a killer disease cough or maybe bronchitis when I went to visit my oldest daughter over the Thanksgiving weekend.  The germs started out tickling my throat, but then sneakily crawled down my trachea and ended up attacking my lungs.

I finally went to see my exorcist doctor about 2 or 3 days ago because I am dying tired of the symptoms.  He gave me antibiotics.  I’m still not feeling better.

So here I am, signed up for the December version of NaBloPoMo, and I’m too sick to blog every day.  I mean, for Pete’s sake, I’m dragging myself out of bed, going to court, and dragging myself back to bed, almost every day this week.  Who has time to blog???

If you are unfortunate enough to catch this virus, my only advice is to stay in bed and rest.  I have tried to combat it while continuing to run around and I think I am worse off.

Seriously, get in bed and don’t move.  I have my cell phone, my laptop, and a “significant other.”  I would suggest you get all three and then stay in bed for at least 3 or 4 weeks.

Take my word for it on this one.  You are f*cked.  People are being knocked out all over the place.

If you have to work, then take Alka Seltzer Cold Remedy or something like that.  Take the “day” version so that you can work as much as possible during the day.

When you go home at night, forget about functioning.  Take the medication that helps you fall asleep and then pass out for about 12 hours.

Good luck!
