Roll Call
I feel almost a pang of guilt? No, not guilt, it takes a lot to self inflict the all mighty essence of guilt upon myself. More like, I feel like I better get my booty on this page, officially, since Indigo over at Raven's Lament put me up for a Guest Editors spot and I've failed miserably at revving up the writing and giving fresh material for visitors. Thank You Indigo!
So here I am. I do have a marginal reason for lacking off. A viral plague of disease and sickness has infiltrated my house and attacked the kiddoes. Fever. Hacking. Sniffling. The whole spectrum of delightfully miserable symptoms.
I for one, have not gotten it. But I feel like a walking, cursed, potential. Like at any moment the Gawds of sickness will strike me down for hugging, kissing, nursing and generally doing the Mommy thing, while they were ridden up in bed for 3 and 4 days. Unless the high content of Diet Coke deposited formaldehyde that has accumulated in my body can fend the bugs off, I'm toast~~
In other news, we had a mini-earthquake here in Idaho this morning. Evidently I missed the entire thing. Or walked through the momentary jiggle and didn't even notice. Which is sort of a bummer. Things like that rarely happen in my parts, so I suppose it's a big deal. It must be, because the news stations in my town held the TV hostage for 3 hours with "breaking news story" even though the actual earthquake happened in Nevada.
My town is still small enough to get excited, WAY excited, by the most miniscule of news. I do hope the people in Wells, Nevada are all right. As for the people in Idaho that felt a 'wave'.....I say, relax people, it didn't even really 'happen' to us. Then again, we are Idaho, we do have to get our kicks when we can.
I do wish I had something more interesting to write about. Being cooped up in the house has limited my observation and interaction thought processes. I've been left to meddle in my own mind and own devices for days on end and that isn't exactly a good thing. A good example of what happens to my mind and thoughts can be found in the video below....................................................
On a side note. If you had emailed me your address, you should have received a note in the mail from me by now. If you haven't, please let me know, because that would mean I messed up. I do appreciate all the addresses I was gifted, and after a visit to the doctor to unlock my hand from the paralysis that occurred after writing so many (smile) , I felt remarkably satisfied by the experience. Thank You everyone~~~
Ok, this booty call is borderline mundane and I can't be having that. I shall return again, and hopefully with something more interesting then quarantined plagues, jiggle waves in the dirt, my brain on letters and a sheepish goodbye~~~

I'm forever feeling like the Rabbit with a timepiece in, "Alice In Wonderland" running around shouting, "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date"...(winks)
I wasn't in the least bit concerned if you had new material or not, any in the archives would of made fabulous reading to get to know you. It was definitely my pleasure in making you one of my choices. It's not just a friendship thing either, you really are a wonderful read and writer.
Here's to hoping you survived the girls flu, without being it's next recipient. (Hugs) Indigo

Hi! I stopped by via Magic Smoke--congrats on being a guest editor pick! Your journal is wonderful.
As for the virus making the rounds, I hope you don't get it--we've seen some widespread illness in my community.
Take care,
Beth

Your writing style is a lilting delight. ABOUT earthquakes! I hope you do experience the earth move some day. That is not a negative wish. I grew up in Los Angeles and felt many, many tremors. I feel deeply for those who've suffered injury or property devastation because of them. BUT.....there is no greater sense of AWE than standing wherever you are feeling the earth shake. It is so humbling. You can't run and hide. There is no truly safe place to be. You just have to give your spirit up to fate. I get chills just thinking about them. If you are ever in one? May FATE be kind to you.
I'm Paul
