Well, ain't life grand.

I've been fighting a worsening ear infection since flying back from
Toronto last week, and in a follow-up today with my doctor he explained
that if I get on a plane anytime in the next seven to ten days, I risk
blowing out my left eardrum and potentially losing my hearing in that
ear. This is, unhappily, a recurring problem. This happened before
when I was working on Jeremiah, and I had to take a train from LA to
Vancouver. (Unfortunately, there are as yet no trains from the US to
the UK.)

My apologies to the UK fans who were looking forward to my visit (both
of you), and I hope we can try this again.
