It hurts less not to think at all, I guess. Today is automatic pilot and distracting myself.

A treasure-trove of folk tales and essays on same

Which includes the original version of Amleth, Prince of Denmark. Among other things, Amleth gets all the nobles who support his uncle drunk, then ties them up with the tapestry his mother made according to his designs, and sets fire to the palace. I love the uncut versions of fairytales ^_^

Tales from the "Liberry" is a librarian's blog, with links to other librarians' blogs. Somewhere in the back of my mind there's a ponytailed and earring-wearing guy who hides from his past in a small-town library, and his friend the young assistant priest at the town church, and the grifter woman in the Rolls Royce Phantom V with a hand holding a crystal ball instead of the Spirit of Ecstasy. Some day I might even know what their story is.

I've got a long list of various Phantom of the Opera meta that's been percolating on the back burner for a while now, but I'll wait until I have some icons, too.

And that's a suitably cheering image.

It would be more cheering if I knew who they were. It's one of the stories that come to me in pieces of a very large puzzle.

And thanks.

Feel up to chatting?

I'd love to but gotta dash. Mom just got back from the seaside (she went to bury Lady P. at our grandparents' summer cottage, Lady P's favourite place in the whole world) and some hands need holding :/ Catch you soon!

Hope things aren't too upsetting for either of you tonight.

Library blogs - it's the in thing for those with MLS's these days.

Including me.

*hugs* I hope you feel better soon - it really does get better, I remember it hurting like hell the first couple of weeks after my dog died.

I saw your comments in library_mofo, which was the place that led me to that blog :)

Thanks. It's better than it was. Thankfully I have Tonio to take my mind off things - I don't want to think what it would be like if I didn't have a warm kitty body to hug.

*offers a hug* I also hope you feel better soon. Please take care of yourself.

Thank you ^_^ I have Tonio to remind me to - I spent half an hour today wrestling him into his kitty-box for a trip to the vet's (a whole another story... let's just say he's arguably the stupidest cat in the world), and it helps me feel alive. And cat-scratched. Ouch.

<3 Good ol' Tonio...well, not the cat-scratched bit n.n;;
