Unusual awesomeness...

Tome does not know this, but I wore my HOTFB all day long yesterday. Yup, even to work. Now, it seems that she has a magical mailbox, but I have this amazing helm. It is truly infused with supernatural powers. Not only did receive the fabulous sculpture of Mrs. Whitworth, but Shoryl of Tiny WoW Guild met up with me to give me a tiny shale spider! It's adorable! Now, here is where the day takes a twist. I was hunkered into getting Kellda's 3000 Valor Points for Wrathion (yes, that kid totally charmed me), and Heartichoke was working on a surprise for a buddy, when CD Rogue comes in the room telling me not good health news. He's fine, but it entailed a trip to the emergency room, CAT scan, MRI, and a long night of him worrying and me trying to get comfortable on a half-bench in his room. The place was empty except for some poor family whose baby must have been very sick, and cried for the hours we were there. It was all I could do not to go in there and try to help -- but it's hard to know if young parents want it or not. I know that cry, and that cry of a sick baby/child is not great. But after all the tests, poking, and prodding, he's fine (it is something, but not a stroke). Now we could say that's awful! Boo! And though it was not fun, it was not awful. I credit the HOTFB for its continuing protection and service. 

That and good health insurance.

Thank you Shoryl!

Needless to say, I'm pretty damn tired. Went to bed around 2AM, woke up at 7:30. But I am looking forward to whatever mischief we can get into this afternoon -- one and all are welcome -- don't be shy!
