And another cat as well
Meet Indiana. He’s my new foster. He’s young, he’s friendly, he mugs for the camera, and he loves laser dot. And ladies, he’s single and available.
This is why I don’t take quizes.

Study Buddy
I know she’s trying to help, but it’s driving me nuts. Shoulda gone to the library.
Earthsea
Crud. I’ve been looking forward to SciFi channel’s dramatization of Earthsea since I first heard about it last summer. I can’t say I was following the production news that closely, but I assumed that even a typical SciFi station screw up would result in at least a watchable version of the books. Apparently I’m wrong….
A Night With Dar Williams
Dar Williams earned her ticket fees last night. I just wish I could say the same of her opening act. I’d have probably been happier if I hadn’t rushed to get to the concert after work, but instead waited until the group who opened had done their thing. The opening act was some group called…
Serendipity

Sal,
Your entry made me cry. You do work in a Holy Place and yours is a hard job but I’m glad that there’s someone with your heart and compassion to do it.

I won’t go so far as to label where I work a holy place, but I do feel a great ethical responsibility for my work. When I was in college I had a professor who was so obviously bored with what he did that I hoped I would find something that I could be passionate about so I wouldn’t end up like that. I wish everyone searched for and found the Great Reasons for what they do. Reading your entry made me feel not so alone.
There are a few of us here at DD that have found honor in their work. Welshamethyst and TraumaMama come to mind. I’m glad to have found them, too.
Wow, that is a really great entry. I am really just at a loss for words…
I can relate to having to turn your feelings off. Been there, do that.
