Mark has gone to get Emma, and I don't feel all that well. But there's a million things to do today, so I will have to wait to feel ill until later. I just finished reading "Tis" the second book to "Angela's Ashes" and now am feeling weepy. I sat on the front porch stoop with tears rolling down my face, reading the last few pages. Now I don't have a book to read.

Oh, shush.
