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.

Some people need to chill out. Neither candidate is insanely radical.

Palin isn't insanely radical? McCain "don't talk to anybody" "Spain is an adversary" "bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" isn't a radical on foreign policy?

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

Hee hee! Love ticklish Noah and love Betty White!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just saw a letter from Felcher Financial Group on my boss's desk....

I might be picking up some weekday-evening hours at the law firm which wouldn't interfere with my bookstore hours, so I could increase my pay there from around $120/month to over $200! That paycheck is going solely to my savings account (which I'm finally getting up to a 3-digit balance, with hopes of a 4-digit balance by the end of the year), so every bit will help nicely.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For a nice antidote to the worries of the world:

Seriously!!

Allyson, I'm glad, given past jackassery, your boss gets some things right.

Thank you, lori, for sharing the gigglemonster. I DID need that.

(Pretty sure my package was stolen. Sigh.)
