Does anyone ever actually catch up? Well, not me, I guess, even if other people manage it somehow. My friend Doug once referred to my office as Rubick's Den - I'm still trying to find the good starting spot.


I had a long phone conversation with Robin last night. She had fallen on the ice. Serendipitiously, she seems to call me every time she falls - my theory is, it jars out the peg next to my name in her brain!

I hadn't spoken to her since her mother passed away, so along with the usual madness we spent time talking about the things families do. Makes me glad I don't see mine. (though I suppose sooner or later someone will try to put me on the hot spot for not rushing to see my uncle). Maybe I'll have a new phone number before then...

Whenever we get to that spot, I am boggled at how Robin managed to grow up to be her in that family. (I sometimes wonder this about myself, too - but I had my mom after all.)


Robin, if you read this, just remember we have each other for siblings the last twenty-something years.. The hell with the rest of it. Chosen family is the best.

Dream, the third of The Endless, you are in charge

of the Dreaming, all imagination and

creativity, everyone knows your beautiful

realm, but none truly understand it. You are

dark and brooding, creative, and spend a lot

of time by yourself, just thinking. You are

almost as serious as Destiny, but not quite.

Everyone is enchanted by you, but you keep

them all at a distance, even when you

shouldn't.


Which Endless are you?

He just found trouble on the terraces on dvd at amazon uk - typical, neh?) and suddenly this cover for a movie we don't own appeared on my desk .....
