I am stating this to explain, not to look for sympathy, so I won’t belabor the point by going into more detail; if you want a good description of Social Anxiety Disorder, see here: http://www.socialphobia.org/whatis.html
When I started this blog, I committed to a lot of public contact, which is a real difficult challenge for me. Internet contact, phone calls, or e-mails are generally almost as difficult for me as real life interaction. …

More fun testing out the new camera. Mike’s a good bird! His toys are cheap, and he puts them away when he’s done!

And I will be going through all the e-mails, messages, and comments that came in while I’ve been gone, but be patient, It will take me some time to answer everything.
