flea, Jess has done that using Apple TV. Great idea!
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
What will you spend it on - any wish list items coming true now?
A REAL vacation!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
ita, I'm so glad you got a diagnosis and pain meds that work, and that you're getting help on the grocery front (thanks, Burrell!). Clear soups are good for uneasy tummy, but the colder popsicles, sorbets, applesauce things are more appealing when I have urghy tum. Bananas, and then things like rice, rice in broth. I hope reaquiring actual food goes well and smoothly for you.
WooHoo, Zen! That goes a little way toward compensating you for all the nonsense your job causes.
I know we need worst-case scenarios for contingency planning. But I do wish it wasn't what sells news.

That's awesome, Zen!
We just got word that my company has donated $1.25 million (100 million yen) to the Japanese Red Cross. Nice.

Librarian Warlord
Yay, Zen!
I just got an email from a librarian who works in DC with the same title as I have. She's apparently about to go into salary/job description negotiations and would like me to give her my job description and my salary (or a ballpark figure).
Now, normally, I am all for revealing this kind of information and happy to help another librarian.
However, way back when, this person and I worked in the same library and there's no hint that she remembers me at all. Worse (for her chances of getting me to answer that email) her appearance at my old work place also meant that the big boss gave my office to her and my job, and changed my title and stuck me in a cubicle. (And then I quit and left for Berkeley which pissed off the old big boss because she tried so hard to sabotage my job search.)
I am so tempted to send her a fake job description and tell her I make half of what I do. eta: And cc it to her boss and the dean of her school, of course.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
ita, at least you have a diagnosis, but ergh. You punch that liver infection in the face.
Zen, that's great! Enjoy your REAL vacation!

If it didn't mean taking an implied hit at yourself, I'd bes sure to start the letter with "Wow! Based on when I saw you last I'd have thought you'd be so much farther in your career by now! And here we are at the same level again. Huh." Then tell her you make three times what you do so she gets laughed out of the office.
