Thanks, Laura.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Of all the times for me to actually go to bed at a reasonable hour, it would be when you return to us, Shir. I'm glad you survived exams.
At least my reason for going to bed early was that I have a brand new mattress to try out. In four decades of life, this is the first time I've ever had a new one. But back and shoulder pain were getting to me, so it was definitely time. When I went to the mattress store, the guy asked me whether I liked firm or soft, and I told him, "I have no idea, I've never had a new mattress, so I don't know what new firm or soft feels like." So he had me try them all out. Firm? Was too firm. Medium felt good. Soft felt... like I couldn't move. So I went for medium. Also, it being a Serta, I got a cute little stuffed sheep toy as a bonus. I gave that to the cats.

Hooray for Shir finishing tests!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
oh Theo, I second Laura, today would be best. I wish you had some help and many many hugs.
I slept in, which was grand. of course I did wake up every hour from 6-9 wondering where mac was before I remembered. Now I need to get dressed for lunch date.

Sox, I have another package for you! I'm not so good at getting these out in a timely manner am I?
Anyway, I'll try to call ita later in the AM.

Art Crawl!!!
Hey, I just discovered that ION is showing the Color of Magic tonight.
Is this a good adaptation of the book?
(It does have Sean Astin and Tim Curry in it and Jeremy Irons.)

Sumi, I caught a showing of that a month or two ago, and it was fun, especially because Astin was note perfect as Two Flower.

Went to a house concert last night and saw Roy Zimmerman. Lots of fun.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Hi Shir, nice to see you around.
Take care of yourself, too, Theo. Forgive me if I sound like a buttinsky, but maybe it would help if you could bring in more care for her. Half an hour twice a day isn't much relief for you.
I better go make breakfast for the kiddies. They want pancakes, but I just want one of the scones I made yesterday: almond meal in the batter, with dried cherries and chocolate chips.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ooh! Pratchett!
Good, Kat, keep us posted.
I started out my spring break by waking up at six with a nosebleed. Not on, universe! And Dave had a rough night, too, so we're skipping church, and he's sleeping in.
But it's a pretty day, and there was a flock of about fifty robins tooling around this morning. Must be spring, I think they're rounding up to head up toward you northerly folks.
