Before I talk about where I’ve been for the past three weeks, let me begin with where I am right now. I’m at home. Sitting at my desk. With my feet up. Well, with one foot up. My right foot. That’s the one that is currently bandaged and swollen after being sprained this past week playing volleyball. Meh.
