I&#8217;m in the process of rewriting now. I want to game (I check in every once in a while but often don&#8217;t want to get into it). I want to read. I <em>have <\/em>to write.

I can only hope that I get further this weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a lot of health problems. My internal chemistry needs to be perfect for me to function.
