I got this e-mail today. It's the most adorable spam I have ever received. Don't you just want to be Anna's friend?
Hi. How you?
My name is Anna. I'm fine and I decided to write to you the letter, to get acquainted with you. It is possible to get acquainted with you? I am perfect one and I do not have anybody. I have no children, but they very much like me. I was not married, though to me 29 years will be executed. The some people speak that time cunningly, and I so do not think. It seems to me, that I only start to live. I very much would want to get acquainted with you. You can tell to me about yourself and send a photo? I shall write to you the letter and I shall send the photo. It is interesting to get acquainted with you through the Internet.

The Museum Case of Disgusting Objects

In the waiting room of my ENT's office is a glass museum case filled with stuff that the doctors have taken out of people's ears, nose and throats. For example: "Female, 56 years old, cockroach - ear." Click on the image for a larger picture that you can browse through the disgusting objects yourself.

I had to go to the grocery store because the cupboards were bare. After spending $120 (I told you, I was out of ever-y-thing) I was pushing my overflowing ill-behaved cart towards the door when I saw a little old lady waddling towards the ATM with her cart. She must have just come out of the bathroom because she had a paper toilet seat cover sticking out of the back of her pants. I wasn�t sure what to do. I couldn�t just grab it because it was wet and kind of sticking to her butt. I also wasn�t sure if she could reach it herself and thus would ask for my assistance if I alerted her to its prescence. So I took the coward's way out and just walked by pretending that I didn�t see anything.

I forgot to mention that I went and saw Mad Hot Ballroom this weekend. I've been itching to see it ever since I caught the previews in the spring. It's a heartwarming documentary about inner city kids from New York that participate in a ballroom dancing competition. You totally fall in love with these kids and I wonder what will happen to them in the future. I'd love to believe that ballroom dancing would save all of them but you just know that some of these amazing kids are going to be lost to the streets. For a lower budget documentary, this film is pretty fabulous. I highly recommend it.

I�ve got one agent interested in reading Blood for Persephone, so I�m working on rewriting the first three chapters and punching it up a bit. I want it to grip the reader by the lapels and not let go until they�re finished reading.
On a medical note my lip biopsy came back with lymphocytes and granulomas in it, the nurse said that meant inflammation but not severe enough to be considered Sjogren�s. I�m waiting for the doctor to call me back and see what his opinion is and what I should do. What a pain - so it�s more hurry up and wait.
I finally broke down and hired a gardener. He�s my next door neighbor so not only is the proximity thing nice but he gardens without his shirt on and he is hot hot hot. I feel like I should be stuffing dollar bills in the waistband of his jeans when he�s mowing my lawn.
I�ve been reading obsessively lately. My newest diversion is Jasper Fforde�s The Big Over Easy. I thought it was a new Thursday Next novel but it�s a new series he�s started � Jack Spratt Investigates: A Nursery Crime. It�s pretty amusing. He has a propensity for killing giants and trying to solve the murder of Humpty Dumpty. I highly recommend it.
