I’m shutting off my computer now …
Give test answers in Haiku.
Bonus points for style?
Yes, Lil, that is the ring. Magnificent, isn’t it? [insert beaming smile here] And, since The Socialist said I could wear it as an engagement ring, that’s exactly what I’m doing. Everything remains informal, and there’s still no date set or even discussed. I’m perfectly happy to go with the flow though. Yesterday The Socialist…
This weekend’s get-away is cancelled. George sees a real vet in about two and a half hours. He was just sick again, and had some more *nasty* diarrhea. The Prof even smelled it from the other end of the apartment. Bathroom door is shut, and the exhaust fan is going at the moment. Thank heaven…
Last year, when The Sisters planted my garden for me while I was recuperating, they planted three plants that never bloomed. My younger sister couldn’t remember what these plants were, but I was told to leave them be, and that they’d bloom the second year. Well, all three plants are back, and two of them…
I’m exhausted. It seems I’m always exhausted anymore. I’m frankly bored of reading how exhausted I am. I need to get a life, but I’m too tired to go out and look for one. In spite of my whining, I did have a wonderful weekend. After a lovely sleep-in Saturday, The Socialist and I ran…
Another day, another withholding for Uncle Sam. Thank heavens I have to go get my stomach scoped tomorrow. I’m not sure I’d make it through another day at work. I wish there’d been some way to ease into things, but having tomorrow off helps, I guess. One nice thing did happen. I got a call…
It’s too hot to do anything except occasionally rotate to present the other side to the fan. Philadelphia peaked at 102°F (38.9°C) this afternoon. It’s just after 6:00 now, and 101° in the city. I put a 9″X13″ pan of water out in the garden with ice in it in the shade this afternoon for…
Never did grok it.

Straining mightily
On a feverish spring day
Is most unseemly
Now I understand
I sadly lack ambition
You will not lack wealth
The Koi will languish
The cherry blossom wither
But you will succeed
Retreat if you must
But you started this game dear
Victory is mine!
🙂
Thanks for the fun!
