A Seasonal Haiku
Muscle aches, headache and snot.
Influenza sucks.
So, it’s time to take stock of the situation a bit. With the divorce finalized, I need to start figuring out where I go from here. – I am not getting married again. Emphatically not. I told the Professor this long before he moved from California to be with me. He was upset at the…
Regarding Widdershin’s comment on the prior page: OK, The “ck” is silent. Live with it. We made it with comfortable time to spare to the Bruce Cockburn concert last night. I’ve long known of Cockburn, and a few songs of his make my personal all-time favorites list. I don’t go to many concerts. If I…
La Salamandre I’ve elected to give Xanga a try – it does’t have the flexibility of the Old Dear Diary, but it lets me do a lot more formatting than the new DearDiary.Net does. Xanga is well established, has a good security rating, and seems to have a good support section. It did take me…
Cats All good entries start with cat updates. Another month, another set of vet visits. This time itâs LBS, who still has diarrhea at one end and major kitty snuffles at the other end. She seems to be improving, but has lost weight to the point where the Prof is just about running after her…

Did you get the flu?
Sorry you got the damn flu!
We’ve all got a bug here. First the baby, then the Kid, then W, then me and now S. Luckily, there seem to be at least two of us functioning more or less normally at all times. I don’t have your wonderful haiku in front of me just now, but as my fever-addled brain recalls there is no mention of the horrible sore throat! When I wake up in the morning it feels like I’ve been swallowing chunks of hot pumice all night. Horrible, just horrible. But the haiku is good, really good.
