Far from the Madding Crowd

Think of me in half an hour... for, you see, when it is ten o'clock in Seattle, it will be noon in Missouri... and at noon, in Missouri, on the Solstice (how mystic...), I will gain a stepmother.

As I told my mother yesterday, I try not to be surprised by much anymore. This ordeal as showed me that yes, indeed, life can be just plain weird. But, I can cope: the new library downtown has practice rooms available with pianos (well, full-sized keyboards, but who's complaining?), there is ice cream in my freezer, and I am over 2,000 miles away from the madness.
