On behalf of those in need, and those who may someday sit in their doctor's office and ask "why me?" -- thank you.

peoples! new peoples!

*waves at all the new peoples!*

I'm making chili.

Three hours of simmering, during which I can do nothing but sit with a manuscript and laptop, and occasionally sniff appreciatively. And wait for a promised e-mail.


Now, if it were only snowing, instead of unseasonably warm, today would be a very nice day indeed.


ETA: first batch of chili's done. Tasters all agree -- I so rawk. *grin* One more batch to make, and I might have enough, based on histocial precedent...
