Hi, I made some changes to the site, including adding some aliases (aliaii?), updating the "about" page a bit, and changing the colors so we looked less like winter mourning and more like, you know, summer. Sorry if I broke your feed or anything.

Squire Tuck (the boy formerly known as K) is done with school, finally, today, and is celebrating by having a fever. He’d better get better before it’s time to leave for Greece, as I’d hate to leave him behind.

I’m trying to decide which of my Procrastinated Heavy Books I’ll take to Greece. I started "Love in the Time of Cholera" in the waiting room (which is sort of like the beach except no fun at all) and I feel so much more optimistic about finishing it than I did about 100 Years of People with the Same Name, which I finished because at that age I still thought finishing books was a virtue, like cleaning your plate. But now I am old and wise and must watch which words spend time getting into my head.  But I’m going to finish it before we leave, I think, so I must pick something else. Arthur and George? Kavalier and Clay?

Otherwise we’re doing what we generally do. I got all the paperwork in order so that if the house catches fire Friar Tuck (the man formerly known as P) will know which papers to grab. How much do you love these aliases? See what 5 days without a single drop of alcohol does to me? Busy busy busy brain. Gosh, do I need a dreamless sleep ever so badly.
