Thanks. Em's doing better than her mother, for sure. My fever has gotten up to about 102, whereas Em's has stayed below 100. I know that getting chiken pox as an adult is a lot harder to handle, but I wonder if that true for most "childhood" illnesses cause damn this strep has knocked me the eff out.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ticket to Ride is a great social game, especially with four people. I'm a little burnt out on it now, but it's well designed. I recommend getting the 1910 expansion - it's better balanced with the extra routes and with a "Most routes completed" bonus.
Heh. We also talked about (a) that you liked it and (b) Raq did not. So Buffistas were with us as we played.
I need to play it more often than once every two years because if I remembered the rules better I wouldn't have taken that extra 11 pt. ticket that I had to eat. And I would have come in second.

I'm still in bed and have been since Thursday at 7:30pm. I've napped on and off today since getting the lovely meds, so I'm doing pretty ok.

I'm sorry, Aims. I hope the meds kick the strep for you and Em quickly.

Yuck, Aimee. I hope you and Em get well soon.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Aimee, my memory is that strep is an unpleasant bear no matter what your age.

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.
Get well soon~ma for Aims and Em.

Holy shit, that's a beautiful picture of the Northern Lights.
I think having the trees there for scale and some other colors helps give a sense of it.
Things I'd love to see:
Northern Lights
St. Elmo's Fire
A lava flow
Ball lightning

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Feel better, Aims and Em.
I am still doing laundry, and have added IMing with two guys on OKC, one of whom is a friend of MFJs. We're going to get dinner and see a band next week.
