Just because I can, here's a couple more of the poetry lines added onto one of the previous, formatted into a fabulous masterpiece:
squirrels love raging upon bongos together
live as a little baby mud squirrel
where is my bongo nestI love it.
I have a couple of good habits cultivated from being at L'Abri, unfortunately, I've also aquired a taste for milk and sugar in my tea. Two sugar. *sheepish*
Oh, yes, by the way, I'm home... Still a bit messed up about the time of day, of course, but adjusting pretty well. Doling out chocolate in carefully measured rations to the family. Eying my beautiful jars of mutarde with delight. Living out of my suitcase because I haven't unpacked yet. Ah, travel.
I have a nasty little hangnail that's plaguing me.
I did a book order at about four thirty this morning:
The Book of Common Prayer
Christina Rossetti - The Complete Poems
Christina Rossetti - Sing Song
Complete Nonsense of Edward Lear
G.K. Chesterton - Orthodoxy
G.K. Chesterton - The Man Who Was Thursday
Poems and Prose of Gerard Manley Hopkins
C.S. Lewis - The Chronicles of Narnia (some lovely little paperbacks that travel beautifully)
Phillipa Pearce - Tom's Midnight GardenI'm going to buy a laptop instead of a car. Not an Apple. Don't anyone hurt me.
I do believe I shall put in my notice at the nursing home.
More developments may or may not be disclosed in the near future.

Eeee! Gerard Manley Hopkins! The ecstacy I felt when I first heard "God's Grandeur" read aloud was almost physical. I still get chills when I read his poetry (particularly the aforementioned and "Pied Beauty").
Laptops pwn cars, any day.
...Egad. I thought I swore I would never say 'pwn' again. *whimpers*
