Like a Yo-Yo!
All of the Blogsplot.net blogs have been up and down more than a Yo-Yo in the last week or so.
I’ve been in touch with Acenet.net, which is where we have our domain hosted. It appears that they discovered that someone on the same physical server as Blogsplot.net was abusing it somehow. They told me that they thought that removing the abusive account from the server would clear the problem up.
… I hope so! It’s a HUGE pain in the (_|_) to move to a different server. ;o)
While we’re at it … if any of you have tried to be in touch with Dr. Engel and not received a reply - he’s OK, but his internet connection isn’t. He’s been offline for nearly two weeks now, and is one very frustrated gentleman. I believe he’s going to try to connect through a different company. I don’t envy him. That’s a royal pain in the aforementioned area too.
But anyway - we’re back. Hopefully. *crosses fingers* Maybe someday I’ll be rich and famous, and I’ll be able to have my own server … but until that happens, shared hosting is where it’s at. Hey! At least it’s not Blo … oops … I almost said that out loud! *cough*

Abby, I called Dr. Engel on Sunday evening to touch base with him, and he told me that he was sick. I was really concerned for him, because he hadn’t told anyone he was ill, and he lives alone.
Last night, I called him again to check on him, and there was no answer … so I called his hospital, and sure enough - there he was!
I called his room, and we spoke for a few moments. He was feeling somewhat better, had eaten something and kept it down, his labs were improving, and he felt certain that they would let him go home today.
I’ll be calling him tomorrow to see how he is.
He tries to minimize everything, and that worries me even more. I teased him about being a terrible patient … I don’t think he realizes how worried he’d be about a patient who’s as casual about his health he is. I think a lot of docs suffer from the same “disconnect!” ;o)
I’ll tell him you were asking about him.

Thank you Moof, I appreciate it. I hope that he is doing as well as he sounds, too.
