OK, this a quick update because I can only type with my left hand. The surgery went well yesterday and now i am sitting around learning that i am definitely not left-handed. the drain gets removed today and i should find out how long until i can use both arms again.  i will guess 2-3 weeks.  i have some book reviews i will put up in the meantime but nothing substantive.  i have big one about the Marian reforms of the roman army that will get [posted once i can really type again and get it finished.
I will have shoulder surgery today and will probably not be doing a lot of typing for at least the next two weeks when I will have to be in a sling.  Unfortunately, it is my right shoulder getting operated on and I am right handed.  I am very curious to see how well I operate a mouse left handed.  I will still be checking and approving comments but there will not be any new posts until my shoulder heals up enough for me two type with two hands.
