Okay, I'm entering this today as a test, to see if yesterday's entry will be deleted. 

Nothing much new, other than a bout of IBS that kept me up most of last night ... need to de-caffeinate meng!

At any rate, the meds are kicking in, so as long as I steer clear from caffeine, lactose and spicy foods for the next few days I should be right as rain in a day or two.

The story is progressing slowly.  I'm introducing a few oddball facts into it for future reference, and a secondary character is taking a more "center stage" role, so I had to find him a name that sounded Tamaranee enough.

That's all for now my friends!
