I just spent the entire day running here, there, and everywhere, getting ready for this trip, and I totally skipped to the end to say:
Buffistas are a rare, very special breed of people, and I'm really grateful they've taken me in.
Now I have to go lie down and then catch up and then finish packing.
Ugh, reality just hit me again
Hang in there, lady.
I'm so sorry, ita. Try to breathe slow and even. Batbelt can be refinished, even better, maybe. Sending head-ease-ma.
meara, we're planning to drive up to New Halem and Twisp--pretty leaves up there.
Timelies all!
More ~ma for ita and her mom.
Speaking of disease epidemics, Seanan McGuire has written and recorded a Schoolhouse Rock style song about the Black Death(and her take on what caused it). It's called "The Black Death".
It is a great song. The CDC has it up in their office.
Thanks FOR NOTHING.
Oh, I bet you wish nothing but the best for those two oooh! Sorry, sorry! You started it, though. If you spread the earworm to exorcise it, you gotta expect it to ring around the room for a while. But yeah, songs like that bite when they're a little too close to home. You don't need someone like him. You'll have someone like awesome in due time.

Me too!

Blah. I hope that reality gives it a miss. We're here for you.
You started it, though.
I know, I know
::hangs head::
Are you there yet, ita? Or still connecting?
ita, I am so sorry. Are you eating and hydrating and all that? Travel and worry together can take a lot out of you, so even if oyu don't feel like it, make sure you drink water and eat something.
P-C - is this it?
I may have a new earworm ....
That...is not it. It's not a song parody; it's original.
Here are the lyrics.

Wow. That's some talented lyricism right there. (Since the song was written, genetic studies have indicated that the black death was indeed the bubonic plague, which is a bit of a shame given the effort put into that song.)
