Everyone I'm sorry I have not posted in a LONG time, we have computer problems. Don't you hate those! Anyway not much going on here, it's hot and I will finish school for the summer this week! Phillipe fell and...broke his face...it's sad. I will be getting my goat soon! Peggy! I cannot wait! And I am getting a kitten soon! Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! Hope to hear from you all soon!!!!

Poem of November
Limbo
Fishermen at Ballyshannon
Netted an infant last night
Along with the salmon.
An illegitimate spawning,
A small one thrown back
To the waters. But I'm sure
As she stood in the shallows
Ducking him tenderly
Till the frozen knobs of her wrists
Were dead as the gravel,
He was a minnow with hooks
Tearing her open.
She waded in under
The sign of the cross.
He was hauled in with the fish.
Now limbo will be
A cold glitter of souls
Through some far briny zone.
Even Christ's palms, unhealed,
Smart and cannot fish there.

Most certainly always yourself. And again, sorry for poor little Phillipe, his face was so beautiful his body rejected it and it just....fell off. So, so sorry.

My sympathies to you and Phillipe with the loss of his face. Tragic. What is that world coming to these days?
How do ya like your new visitors? Miss you darlin'!!!
The summer interns...are...Great! They are cool, but not as cool as me. Just kidding, but really, unless you're that way then just kidding.
