Dammit. I just wrote out the longest post i have ever made and then hit the wrong key and lost it all. Now i gotta go lay down for a bit before i can start that again. I'll come back later to give the full story but the bit i will retype now is my thanks to you all for your thoughts and prayers, they are greatly appreciated! And my special thanks to my Lisa for her support through all this! I was supposed to spend the holidays with her but of course it went all wrong. Its now been over 6 weeks since i saw her last, which is the longest time we have been apart since we met in April 07. And in short, im feeling much better now and will hopefully be back to normal within a few weeks.. See you all soon, prolly back on in an hour or two. Happy New Year! You betta be Danny .. we miss your mean nasties

You betta be Danny .. we miss your mean nasties OK i lied it has taken me a couple of days to get back on! Basically i am worn out, i have had/got Glandular Fever and it hit me pretty hard. I turned yellow on Christmas Eve and blood tests showed my liver to be in a pretty bad state. I spent 6 nights in hospital and im now recovering. Im gonna be real tired and worn out for a while, a couple or few weeks at least, it could go on for months if i am unlucky. But even still, im pretty happy it wasnt anything more serious, i should make a full recovery at some stage and there shouldnt be any lasting damage. It means i have to lay off the booze for a while, which is kinda annoying! So anyway, back to the stupidity.. (and thank you all once again for your concerns!!)

could you at least space out those poor jokes? i wouldn't want to get too much of you all at once, especially after such a lengthy absence. i might have to be hospitalized too!
