ANI DIFRANCO IS COMING TO REGINA!!!!

When I read that in the newspaper I nearly had an aneurism, immediately followed by a moment of possible heart failure, a split second of complete denial, and then levelled off in a state of shocked anticipation.

Of all places..... Regina. I am pleased.

I have been ill, aside from being crippled. I've had a fairly grievous week, over all. The house is a disaster because I'm too tired too clean and too sick to care, and poor Abu is showing all the signs of neglect which are typically apparent in your average, not spoiled dog. Today has shown a crack in the clouds, and I'm feeling a little less like weeping and a little more like eating.

Of course, through all of this, I have been working. We are minimally staffed, after all. Finally today I threw budgeting to the wind and picked up a foot-spa. I'm rather surprised, in retrospect, that I didn't get one sooner. I don't think I've ever had a job that didn't require me to spend endless hours on my feet. The foot spa is nice, the ginseng is doing it's work, the tea is making me pee, and I expect to be back to my usual impenetrable self within a day or two.

Well..... there' s not much else to say. I'm looking forward to my trip to vancouver in..... 8 days (woohoo) I must say, the brief holiday is very timely.
