'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got 'Biblical Concubine' which I quite like.

As a child, my family went to a drive-through safari zoo, which caused endless bemusement to us children when a lion peed on our car. (Seriously, I'm sure I could hear my brother crack up if I called him and reminded him of it.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure I don't need to click through, because Cinnamon Toastencrunch will always be my favorite.

Reading the AP feed (wire? whatever you call it) is so freaky. Apparently 160 people are dead in Kyrgyzstan, due to BUBONIC PLAGUE.

Yikes!

MSN says over 100 people quarantined but only one confirmed death: [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't know that any of those are better than Bombadil Cuckooclock.

See, NM has always had plague outbreaks, so I can't say it triggers me. And we don't even BBQ marmot.

My eye is returning to normal but still blurry due to the goop I have to use 4x a day. Apparently the normal treatment is about half that but mine was that bad. Yay?

Now if I get a cold it will mean I hit the vacation trifecta!

Oops. I read it wrong.

Good thing I'm not *writing* news today.

See, NM has always had plague outbreaks

Seriously?!
