DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DIARY!!! It's not a proper diary and really doesn't belong here! (OK, rec if you want.)
I'm breaking all kinds of rules by posting this as a diary, but I wanted to get word to Spath's kossack pals that we're ok. I'm at the office for the first time this week and we have Intertube access here, so I'm trying to get messages out to friends and family when I can. I don't know if I'll be able to respond to comments, but I'll do what I can as time allows.
