Health~ma to Theo's mom and Jesse's grandmom.
I have some good news: my wallet was found! My number isn't listed, apparently, so my good Samaritan found me through a check that was in my wallet from Christmas. Phew! I don't even care that I got all new cards, etc. because it's a relief to know all that stuff isn't floating around out there.

OK, seriously? I thought I would watch an episode of CSI: Miami, and it's one of the maybe three I have ever seen. Why does it always happen like that?? Luckily, it's the one with Kimber from Nip/Tuck (back this week!), so I will just re-watch.

'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"
Thank you all for the -ma, which is still a little needed. Mom is actually doing better, and eating/drinking again, and now is more resolved to talk to the doctors and make some waves until they come up with something to DO for her and her physical problems which isn't merely covered by the phrase "breathing difficulties".
I'm so glad that I decided to come down straight from the family gathering, and extra-glad that I packed more than a day's clothing on the basis that you never know if you're going to be snowed-in in the deep of winter when you travel.

Our wings are not tired.
That's good to hear, Theo.

That does sound good, Theo.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is this what happens when you do too much Ecstasy? You start to believe stuff like this?:
Stonehenge was 'giant concert venue'
A university professor who is an expert in sound and a part-time DJ believes Stonehenge was created as a dance arena for listening to "trance-style" music.
The monument has baffled archaeologists who have argued for decades over the stone circle's 5,000-year history but academic Rupert Till believes he has solved the riddle by suggesting it may have been used for ancient raves.
Mr Till, an expert in acoustics and music technology at Huddersfield University, West Yorks., believes the standing stones had the ideal acoustics to amplify a "repetitive trance rhythm".
The original Stonehenge probably had a "very pleasant, almost concert-like acoustic" that our ancestors slowly perfected over many generations
Okaaaay.....
Of course, other experts have stated:
In ancient times...
Hundreds of years before the dawn of history
Lived a strange race of people... the Druids
No one knows who they were or what they were doing
But their legacy remains
Hewn into the living rock... Of Stonehenge
