Because books.

Oh, ita. If I was there I'd probably take my chances and hug you.

That's just not right. I've got this bizarro wish that this crescendo is about the migraines' last hurrah. And then THEY GO AWAY FOREVER.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Last time they crescendoed I fainted and severely concussed myself. So I'm trying not to read anything into this.

That's not in my bizarro wish.

ita, it makes me furious that you hurt when there are so many people in the world who ought to hurt and don't. I wish there was something I could do that would help even a little bit. Not as much as you do, I'm sure, but man do I wish it.

OK, these gale force winds can fucking go away now. Also, I've been hearing ominous creaking sounds from my not too stable already porch. I know I didn't pay for the gas grill that's sitting out there, but I really don't want to have to move it or deal with digging it out if the porch roof collapses like it sounds like it's thinking about doing.

Erg, wishing you no falling down. That's creepy.

Years ago, I patronized this czech club that made the most awesome spinach hazelnut burger patties. I haven't had the sublime delight since. I just had some spinach pancake things that I got at the Giant during the storm. They were ok, but not perfect. But it's inspired me. So, presuming a car, I'm going to try to make them. What do people think of 3/4 spinach, 1/4 ground up hazelnuts by volume, lots of parmesean, garlic, breading the patties in toasted crumbs and then baking. Do I need to add flour? Maybe some mashed potatos? I'm concerned about the cohesive properties.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

ita, I can't do anything about the headaches but I tried to help a little with the next time you crave certain beverages. Did you happen to get a package yesterday (USPS said it was delivered)? I'm really hoping the contents remained intact.

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

Aurelia, I didn't get any mail today, and I mean that literally-- not even any ads. I think our mailman decided to take a day off.

That's annoying, Lee. ita's package had to travel ground, so I expected it to take longer. Yours should've been there mid-week.
