I haven’t done an event since November of 2008. But I have a good excuse. I can even produce a doctor’s note.

It seems I have peripheral vascular disease. You know, the one they advertise on television where the guy is sitting out the dancing because he has leg pain and some relative, who is a doctor, comes up and says he needs Crestor. I guess I started taking it too late because right before Thanksgiving of last year all of the veins in my left leg decided they’d had enough and just quit pumping blood and it had to be amputated. I have spent the last six months in the hospital, in rehab and learning to walk again. It has certainly been a life altering experience, in more ways than one.

However, I am up on the new leg, and although not quite yet tap dancing, am getting around pretty well. Driving is a cinch. Airplane travel is as painful as ever, but now I get to board first. That's nice. I have my choice of overhead bins.

The book I was working on when all this happened is finally out, and you can all find out if Dan and Ellen ever made it to the altar. I'll give you a hint. they do, but it's not easy. Click on Murder Half-Baked to read the first chapter and find out where the book is available.
