I have returned

I just took one of the longest breaks from writing on this blog that I've taken in a long time.  I recalibrated my thoughts and made some plans for the future.  I've maintained some communications on Twitter, and I still have to write the definitive blog post on why Antarctic sea ice is growing due to global warming.

As one might expect if you're one of the few regulars on my blog, I have a few babe-related commentaries in readiness as well.

I did learn one thing on my break.  The words of the song are entirely true.  "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need".  I got what I needed and I am ready to roll.
