All creatures great and small
So, today is sucking pretty ginormously. Still sick, with pounding headache, and just lost a morning's worth of writing and link-wrangling to the mud-suckage that is Typepad. A whole post, GONE.

Survivor, ANTM, Grey’s, GOSSIP!
Just finished watching Survivor, and my heart has sunk to my navel. Not because Cecilia got booted, but because of the scenes-from-next-week part, when they showed Cao Boi stealing a chick from its nest. I am heartbroken.
