consider this:

This will be my version of the obnoxious elevator on hold music that usually plays for much longer than your expected wait time.

I really am in deed working on the Las Vegas details. I'll be happy to get them finished sometime before Ruby turns five.

Between lacking serious motivation, energy, and chasing a very mobile child around my house, I haven't gotten around to much updating.

Thank you for waiting; a representative will be with you shortly.
