always darkest before the dawn Just when I thought my body would collapse into sickened mush.... Just when I thought I had aliented every friend, aquaintance and associate with my tactless blogging... Just when I felt there was nothing else to live for.... THE DUH STICKERS FINALLY ARRIVED! Yesirree, a thousand duh.cc stickers finally showed up on my porch today, and I shall start blanketing the city, state, and globe immediately. I will be happy to send any "duh" readers a complimentary sticker or two upon request.  Just tell me your snail mail address and I'll send them over ASAP.  The only thing I ask in return is that you e-mail me a picture of your duh sticker in whatever distinctive and scenic environment you live in.  (For instance, Paris readers will want to stick it on the Eifel Tower; Chinese readers will want to stick it on the Great Wall of China, Ethiopian readers will want to stick it on a cow skeleton, etc).  6:18:52 PM    comment []

fever What a miserable 12 hours I just had--kind of like a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride from hell.  I laid down in my bed around 7pm last night, succumbing to this wretched illness.  I  called Whitney and groaned into my phone in a dramatic and pitiable way.  She drove down from Lutz (about 45 minutes by interstate) and brought me Pepto and ginger ale and Tylenol. But the bad trip of it all was the constant and feverish dreams I had all night.  I had that discomfort where you squirm and shift and flip, but you can never get comfortable.  All the while I would drift in and out of these irrational dream thoughts.  Things like:  must squeeze into the shoebox; no one will recognize us with our chicken suits on, etc.  I would flail around in this dimentia for what seemed like hours and hours and then I would look up to my digital clock and only eight minutes had passed.  When I thought it surely must be daybreak, it was only about 10pm. 7:08:28 AM    comment []
