Shit's all sorts of different now.

Yikes, meara - I'm glad there was nothing to it but how scary!!

The only nuns I have had encounters with are our local convent who are Dominican Sisters. They've been on Oprah! They are a teaching order and so the sisters go to EMU and they student teach a lot in my school. There are currently two sisters in my Drama class and one of them is super quiet, but funny and the other is HIGH-LARIOUS. She's in her 30's but only decided on her vocation about 4 years ago. She's from The Bronx and she is outspoken and boisterous and just awesome. I totally want to be their friends outside of class.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So imagine my pleasure when I popped it in and there's a short flourish of music and I hear, "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams. As read by Martin Freeman."

Oooh, nice, I wonder if he does all of them! That would make a fun audiobook series to do.

My stepfather's Aunt Elaine is a nun. Who taught grammar for about forty years. Interpersonally, she was as fun as that sounds, but I understand she did do some interesting Marian research and stuff that would be cool to talk about.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I have an appointment this afternoon with my hemotologist. He just called and said I could come in earlier and he would make sure I got some iron today. I knew my numbers were low, but I'm guessing they are scary low. I'm trying to finish up some work before I head out.

I guess the point of sharing is that despite all the crazyness of the health care system, I have a doc going out of his way to help me. Tis appreciated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is good to hear, Suzi. I hope the iron helps!

In random news, I get emails from OK Cupid when I have a message on there, but they don't include the full message. The one I just got opens:

Hi, I'm a married Boston lawyer, early 60's. Are you open to being the friend and lover of an older...

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and say no.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

~ma to you, lisah. And iron~ma to you, Suzi. I'm glad you have a doctor who looks out for you.

Hey all. I'm still pregnant, in case you were wondering.

Hi, I'm a married Boston lawyer, early 60's. Are you open to being the friend and lover of an older...

But what if it continues as: ...man's single, hot, and highly successful son ?
