I don’t smoke and we don’t have a fireplace. But she’d probably just get me a bubble pipe – I’m easily distracted/amused anyhow.
[digression] Kicker is not actually on-board yet, having received some unpleasant news the day after our DopeFest (but unrelated thereto). A man whom she considered her professional mentor and for whom she had the greatest respect passed away unexpectedly a few days earlier, which as you can imagine is a major bummer (to put it mildly). She is coping as well as can be expected, but is not in a mood to chat at the moment. OTOH, tomorrow’s her birthday and we’re dining with lots of friends, so hopefully it will lift her spirits. Watch this space.

A subscription to Valium? What’s that: the Pill-of-the-Month club?
It’s unbelievable, people who litter. I can’t believe people have the nerve. Yesterday I was driving along the highway and on the oncoming side I see cup fly out of someone’s car from the driver’s window, they threw this large size cup into the ditch. Moron!!
There’s a guy here at work who wouldn’t walk 50 INCHES to put his butt in the trash. He’d hang out smoking with the rest of the crowd, not 5 feet from a ‘Butt Stop’ and just drop the thing on the ground. Oh, and he also enjoyed spitting, whatta guy!
::sniff::Thank you, jr8. Thank you for saying so succinctly what I couldn’t quite figure out I wanted to say. (The part about big businesses being greedy bastards was right on the money, too.)
