Remiss II

i have returned from qatar, and will shortly be posting a number of updates, so for now i will confine myself to thanking the great many of you who have been so incredibly kind over the past several months... not a week goes by but a package arrives filled with booty (though, sadly, never the slightly sticky co-ed fun kind).

easter saw me able to pass out girl scout cookies to all my soldiers and sailors; i easily boast the most comprehensive personal library in theatre, augmented recently by will in the world, moby dick and the consolation of philosophy; my bathstuff collection is not unlike a tropical bar, and when i'm feeling quirky i mix a little shower cocktail; i may now make like mary lennox with my own bit of earth, and grow a secret garden (er, turf pad) for my wahhabi mouse; i've even received an edgar allen poe finger puppet!

so, thank you.

smiling doesn't make the days pass faster, but it certainly helps.
