…no clue. All my tests were pretty well near normal, not indicating any reason I should have fled to the ER in the middle of the night last week. And everything has felt fine since then–I was very tired until the weekend, which is about what you’d expect after losing a night’s sleep and taking […]

My short story “Gil, After All,” sold to Gilgamesh Press for their forthcoming anthology In the Footsteps of Gilgamesh. _______________ Healthwise: I went to work yesterday, because I’m still pain-free, but I was awfully tired and stupid-headed, making foolish mistakes. No ultimate harm done, I don’t think. 🙂 My doctor’s office called and changed my

Review love! From Suite101.com: “Ending the issue is ‘Eastlick’ by Shannon Page, the last of four evocations of childhood.

Today I finally made it back to that place where I’d peered through the windows twice, when they were closed; once I got inside, I was disappointed to find sub-optimal furniture at ridiculous prices.

Heh. It was funny to review the last few days of posts here…first I was all, Yay, squee, heat, oh boy, I love this so muchity much!!! Then I was all, Yeah, still hot. Then: Oh god make it stop the sun is about to crash into the earth and we’re all going to die.
