'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Shir, there used to be Paul, but I don't think he's been active in a long time. Still, my heart goes out to the bombing victims!

tommyrot, count me among the many who are relieved to see you posting here again.

ION, remember the frozen shoulder I had two years ago, that required a cortisone injection and several months of PT? The same kind of intense pain and immobility has sprung up on my opposite shoulder. If so, at least this time I'll try to get prompt intervention, which might lessen the time it takes to get back to normal.

The good thing about frozen shoulder is that it will generally cure itself over the period of a year, but treatment can lessen that by quite a bit. So life could be worse.

Of course, I have my very first job interview tomorrow. Such good timing, but since it's my off shoulder I shouldn't have to worry about being unable to shake hands. AND, I can get my left hand up to keyboard height without too much pain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Sophia!!

Oh, ugh, Theo.

I'm glad you're not dead in a ditch, tommyrot (what??)

My parents grew up in Chelsea, Massachusetts. I thought Joni Mitchell's song was about that Chelsea when i was little. My mom set me straight, which was kind of depressing.

I've never consciously thought about it not being about Chelsea MA until just now....

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Sophia!

“Not dead yet!”

Happy birthday, Sophia!!

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday to Sophia!

Ouch, Theodosia. I hope it resolves quickly, and best wishes for the interview.

Wake up for tommyrot [link]

I insist on seeing this fun-filled morning as spending the entire week's bad luck in one big annoying pack, leaving the rest of it to be as wonderful and stress-less as it can possible be.

As always, I love Nilly's viewpoint.

Tommyrot, good to see you posting again!

Still haven't heard from the in-laws about the Pakistan thing.

Dylan requested Go Dogs Go by name this morning, which was exciting until I found myself reading it 4 times in a row. Why do we teach kids to talk again?

I have four children dissecting the philosophy of Sponge Bob-- Go Dog Go sounds pretty good right now.

Happy birthday Sophia! Also Happy Birthday Smonster, if Facebook is correct!

Awesome Craigslist Ad (linking to a blog post about it 'cause it's already been removed.)

There is a reason the Teletubbies always play each video clip twice.... Again, again!
