I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm told that I will almost never have to work on weekends and not even that many evenings.

Shocking, but true.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

"The dust will always be there; my kids won't."

Only you'll probably dress much better than most on the academic side. Which is a very good thing.

You'll have to switch to cloth diapers. I don't think that having her in plastic pampers will pick up much dust when you swipe her across the top of the mantel.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
