I’m shutting off my computer now …
Give test answers in Haiku.
Bonus points for style?
My site meter has registered two more accesses through Google in the last 24 hours. One was for “men are horrible” (which was a quote from someone else – I never said that) and the other was for “overweight” and “cat pics”. I’m hoping both visitors left somewhat disappointed. The Clueless Wonder isn’t that fat…….
I meant to work this into today’s entry somehow. I ran across a marvelous quotation this morning. A Truth that’s told with bad intent Beats all the Lies you can invent. -William Blake I just wanted to note it so I’d remember.
My transplant coordinator called this morning, said she’d gotten through to the cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (which I am here-ever-after calling CTCL because writing it out is too damned much work) expert and that I should expect a call from him today. Sure enough, at 6:30 this evening he called. He said he’d gotten all kinds…
Memorial observances this year have been more understated, less advertised and less high profile. It’s an improvement. The anniversaries of this date should reflect far less political posturing and televised showmanship, and more scrutiny of the mark that has been left in our history, and the marks we wish to leave in our future history….

I am definitely gainfully employed again. I think (hope) that I’ve finally climbed over the steepest part of the learning curve on the new job. I’ve been assigned my permanent shift, and it’s going to pretty much be a life-changer – 3:30 pm until midnight, with every other weekend on. The weekends won’t be the…

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!
