Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Here's an article covering what's happened so far: [link]

Or, if you prefer, you can watch the dueling bear cubs [link] I came across while looking for more news.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do prefer bear cubs, thanks!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Dana, I found a desk like that (apparently they're called secretaries?) on Craigslist for $30.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yeah, I've been paging through CL too. It's just a ton of stuff to sort through, and people with furniture are just as likely to be an hour away as they are to be close.

Because books.

Go bear cubs, choose bear cubs.

That's a very cool desk, Dana.

Also, I have a combination of "we sold a house" and "it was my birthday!" materialistic blood lust.

Oh, people, I want this house: [link]

We could technically afford it, but it is more than I wanted to spend. It would mean, for example, that it would make no sense to go to France next year.

I woke up with a headache, but now it's building to a migraine. Come on, brain! I only need to hang in there two more hours and then we can jet.

Ooh, that's a good one, flea.

You should have a secretary, Dana.

Pretty house, flea. Any chance they'd negotiate?
