Best intentions notwithstanding, it was all but impossible to get out for quality time with strangers in March. Most significantly, my mother-in-law’s second fight with cancer came to a sudden, tragic end on the 18th. I’ll write more about that in due course, but for now, I’m declaring March an x100.365 write-off, and unlike “old Luke”, I’m refusing to feel guilty about it.

Normal programming will resume in April. “31 strangers in 31 days” will happen later in the year.

This is not an April Fool’s joke. I’m all out of those.
