I just have to take a minute to say that it is humor and good friends (online AND off) who get you through the day.
As you might know from my last post - life has not been quite "business as usual" for me. Coping with everything after my husband's accident has left me feeling a bit stressed and "humor-impaired".
Well - I can always depend on Alice Yucht to make me laugh out loud.
Alice shared the following website on LM_NET in response to the recent controversy about this year's Newbery Award Winner - "The Higher Power of Lucky" by Susan Patron: Pop Goes the Library
With my British background, the above link really reactivated my funny bone. Trust Alice to find something this wonderful. And let's face it - there is not much that is funnier than the names of British culinary traditions!
For more on Alice's perspective on the controversy - see The Power of Lucky Scrotums
Meanwhile Alice has been sharing a joke mailing list and cartoons with me, and it has really lifted my spirits. Thanks again Alice. You are the best!
