Darkest Suburbia...and Beyond!

Both email and a print postcard; I do intend to go, assuming I can get the contact-person to tell me which of two amounts to put on the relevant check. (I am bemused at actually having to break out the checkbook; I think in the three years or so I've had the present account, I've written at most two prior paper checks.)

Meanwhile, here's hoping for rapid progress with respect to the recovery-from-surgery. I have been amazingly lucky to date in having avoided major illness/injury as an adult, so I can't truthfully say that I have felt your pain...but I can still empathize, and I hope you're back to something approaching normal sooner rather than later.
