I think it's gonna be a GOOD day!!!

My day's better, too! I dug up my Glass Lizard, Russell Junior, because we hadn't seen him in a long time- which is not unusual, he lives underground. Still, we worry when we _never_ see him. He is thriving!

I love this board.

I checked in yesterday while the midwife I'm precepting was writing her note. She's new, and therefore, slow. I have time to go to the TE board! I laughed out loud at the passage above. You guys are so cool. I was in the hospital (working) for 22.5 hours straight yesterday, and you all were my little window out into a fascinating world. I love coming here.

At the risk of causing an even sharper turn into thread drift--Nanci, what is a Glass Lizard, and why must he be dug up to be checked on? L.

PS: tlkiwi, I agree. Rats are loud! Also roosters. I did an informal, observational study in Jamaica when I was working there for 2 months. Roosters, according to my research, crow for 22 hours a day. Probably in shifts. Or possibly they were just short a rooster to cover the 2-4 AM shift, when there was relative quiet. I was staying in a small town. Really, how many roosters does one community need? By the time I left, I wanted to start a national "Eat More Rooster" campaign!
