Of course, there is loads of Masonic stuff in DC and I've been informed that if I were to take my memorobilia to the Temple in Alexandria, they'd be mighty pissed that I have stuff that must be kept secret.

Maybe I'll do it...

vw - I think you sent your headache out to me. I have felt off all morning and I just realized that I have a headache just lurking, waiting for the exact right (wrong?) moment to attack.

C called and asked if she could go home sick. Her stomach is bothering her. It has been for a few days - but with no health insurance, there is not a ton a can do right now. I feel awful for her.

I think Raq should sweetly say to the assailant's mother that her wonderful example of failing to own up to her child's actions has helped ever so much with our conception of What Not To Do in Parenting.

I'd like to think that after that would be the time for a good hard kick to the knee, but I'm afraid that would not be the high road. Perhaps just pouring a soda over her head?

Raq, better situation ~ma. I think that, someday, Mallory will benefit from seeing his Mother call an asshat an asshat. Possibly after pre-school, though.

I hope C feels better soon, MG.

Poor MG! I didn't mean to share!

they'd be mighty pissed that I have stuff that must be kept secret.

You don't want that. Next thing would be two large men in nondescript suits knocking on your door: "God haylp ye, we'ire Scottish."

I'm collecting up all y'all's headaches and tummyaches and SnotMonsters, and redistributing them amongst some folks here. If'n ya don't mind.

Ok. I've decided to apply for the scholarship to Oxford using pieces I've already written...so, not so much work, and not so much invested if I don't get it.

I just sent of requests for the letters of recommendation I need. Send me agree~ma from the professors.

Now I just need to write my personal statement of goals and interest in a summer at Oxford.

Raq, my snotmonster isn't what it was a couple days ago, but feel free. But there's an annoying cough, too.

And I'm sure Hubs would be happy to donate his, too.

Raq, I'm boggling at that story. How absolutely horrible. All kinds of ~ma for you and the DH in deciding what to do.

Oxford! Go, vw! How cool would that be?

Oh, and before I forget, any update on the cookbooks?

Oh, and before I forget, any update on the cookbooks?

I keep meaning to post in Press about them. Maybe I'll just go do that right now.

There was a lost e-mail with the file, so it's going to the printer tomorrow or Monday. Which means, it should be shipped soon (I suspect I'll be putting them together next Saturday and shipping then). The printer only needs a day or so to print, so it should be really soon.
