Happy to be here

Lately, I've been watching The Tudors, a sexed-up, soap opera version of Henry VIII's life. I've also been reading Ken Follett's World Without End, which is a historical novel set in 14th century England, so I've been immersed in court intrigue and knights and vassals and plague and corrupt monks and cardinals.

And may I just say that I am thrilled to live HERE and NOW?!!??? I am very grateful for private land ownership, women's rights, antibiotics, and hot and cold running water, among many other things. Oh yes indeed.
