and here we are now

This'll have to do until i set up my own publishing platform.  I mean, i could write a Note on Facebook, but that site is pure evil.  Google+ is the Democratic Party analogue to Facebook's GOP; it has a real chance to do things right but settles for not shitting itself or setting things on fire.  This site doesn't exactly cover itself in glory; this posting interface doesn't seem to have been updated since DW was founded and no evidence of a mobile app exists.

Anyway, for the few who are reading this and didn't already read it elsewhere, i'm three weeks away from my 1-year anniversary of the onset of Guillain-Barré syndrome.  I had a particularly shitty case of it and am now finally getting around to walking.  My hands are still not able to touch-type due to weakness, stiffness, and impaired sensation.  Parts of my face are still paralyzed.  I'm going back to working from home part-time on Feb 1.

Thankfully, the ElJay app works (or, at least, last I checked worked) well with DW. May be android-only, haven't really been looking at what's available on the iOS side.

Hmm, i looked at it but it looked hinky. I guess I'll give it a shot.

Glad to see you're getting back on your feet, literally. I hope you continue to improve.

Yay, welcome back. Also, maybe no mobile app, but the mobile version of the site is all right.

Happy anniversary, as it were.

Happy to hear your health is continuing to improve.

How are you going to work from home if you can't type? Or is it just _touch_-typing that's still a problem?

[rone]

Yeah, it's just touch-typing. My two-finger typing works well enough although it's still a bit error-prone.

Serious congratulations on being well enough to even consider getting back to work. Hope everything continues to improve.

A friend is working on an android DW client called dwim, it has a community around here somewhere. I suspect due to health issues it will not be particularly soon in coming, but they may welcome input :)

NB if you prefer not to *read* or comment directly on LJ too, I have a feed at http://lnr-feed.dreamwidth.org/ :)

Heh, 'dwim', wonderful.

I am subscribed to the feed but didn't think you'd monitor comments there.
