I love Asia and if you end up going, will be interested to hear what you think! We shall have to try your Murakami recommendation -- funnily enough, another friend recently touted this book to us as well. Of course, we need to get through Infinite Jest here this summer -- have you read it? Care to opine? Oh, and we also have the Junot Diaz that you recommended queued up to read as well! (Everything is stacked up behind that damn David Foster Wallace tome.) Looking forward to having you back in the blogging game! Besos. Are you calling me a spineless blogger? *smile*

(see what i did? double meaning! because most bloggers are spineless! *pats himself on back*) i hope you're all functional by the time you get back home. leave the injuries in buenos aires. i am doing great, had an incredible trip and am actually quite sad to be back. i did spain-sweden-germany-czech republic-greece and, to top it off, morocco. i've been bitten by the travel bug. i need to go somewhere far away within the next couple months. if i find cheap tickets soon, i might do a tour of the US and visit all the friends i left behind. otherwise, i'm setting my sights on asia. meanwhile, i'll soon be posting my european tales and photos, possibly starting tonight. got a good amount of writing and reading done over there. speaking of reading, if you haven't read "the wind-up bird chronicle" by murakami, do it. it just leaped into my top 3 books of all time, and that's no easy feat. hah, well, at least you can always fall back on your blogging career. you don’t need a spine for that.

You're back. We missed your posts. I have been thinking about you hoping that you were having a great trip!! Yes, the back...well, we are the fracture family around here with Zoe's wicked broken wrist, which needed to be set, and my fractured vertebrae, which thankfully were stable, and therefore only insanely painful. Truly though, I get better and more functional every day, and even though it wasn't pretty, I was able to be somewhat mobile from day 1, which makes all of the difference for me! I hate injuries where you can't really get up and move, even if it's to another chair. So do tell, how are you doing? Hey! You’re back. We missed your posts.

I've been meaning to write you!! I would like to get back on the proverbial and real horse, but I'm not sure if I'm going to do it here. I wanted to bend your ear on the subject when we get home! Sleeping is getting much better, but it's still fraught with interruption. I have to wake up in order to shift in the slightest, and I'm such an active sleeper, that means a lot of sleep, want to move, wake up, move, sleep cycles! But still, I improve so much every day, I can't complain! Sara! I’ve been meaning to write you!!

Welcome to the club. I hope you will consider getting back on that horse (or a different one, as I did). Yes, sleeping on your back is very hard. Our muscles need to move and stretch - its part of getting a good night's sleep. Sounds like you got pretty good care at the hospital and have great care at home. Hopefully this won't derail your trip to Oregon. Speedy recover Michelle! Oh no! Welcome to the club. I hope you will consider getting back on that horse (or a different one, as I did).

I've uber improved over the last few days. The difference between now and 9 days ago is so stark as to almost make me think I imagined it! Thanks Joli! I’ve uber improved over the last few days.
