The doctor is saying he will be in for three or four more days. He has a laptop with him (and free wireless). Profile addy is good, if anyone wishes to send him get well wishes.

I'm down in Austin dealing with the house we couldn't sell when we moved to North Carolina. The drought has caused some major damage to the foundation. The AC unit is shot. My realtor feels that in the current market, if I drop some $20K into renovations, I stand to lose only about $25K. Today has been, in other words, a deluge of bad news upon bad news.
However, in the silver lining department, I did receive a call about an hour ago setting up an interview for a just-opened English teacher position at a high school that is only some 45 minutes from my house. This will be my first job interview since late April/early May, and my very first teaching job interview. Any and all -ma that kind-hearted Buffistas are willing to spare for me at 8:30 am EST/7:30 am where I am right now - well, that would be most appreciated.

Thanks, Buffistas, for all your good wishes for him and for me. I don't know that he felt the difference, but you helped me.
Thank you so much! Thanks mostly to you people, I have raised over $1000 for the Alzheimer's Association!
I really appreciate your support, financially and otherwise.
Daniel's being transferred to a hospital up in the cities.
Hi all,
I am safely tucked away in Aabott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis, Room H7210, for now.
Long story...
When I took the gig of reviewing The Simpsons, I was wondering why my editor kept whispering "poisoned chalice" at me. If have the stomach for AVC commenters, you can see that they absolutely hated my meager attempts to have fun with the Simpson premiere. I guess I should stick to bone-dry recap.
SFistas - I am coming to your fair city on October 15th and 16th. I do not have all my details planned out yet, but see F2F thread for more details.
Yes, there is a bit of improvement. Infectious diseases specialist said today that Daniel will likely need to be in the hospital for at least another two weeks. He also said that it looks like a staph infection. The wound care team said long-term IV antibiotics (I'm not really sure if that means weeks or months).
