"A Problem Page For All!"

I'm doing pretty well. I have the evening off of chore duty because I'm feeling under the weather. I spent the day making mix tapes for Christmas presents for my family and lying in the grass in the backyard soaking up the weak autumnal sun. Cher insisted that I fast to help get rid of this bug, so I'm ignoring the lovely aroma of pea soup wafting out from the kitchen.

Tell me about your sweater! I love sweaters! Is it cotton, wool, acryllic? Is it a solid color or does it have designs? Is it all stockinette-stitch or does it have cables or lace? (You know that book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie? It says, "If you give a mouse a cookie, he'll ask for a glass of milk. If you give him a glass of milk, he'll need to look in the mirror to see if he has a milk moustache. If he looks in a mirror, he'll see that he needs a haircut. If he..." etc. I feel like "If you tell a knitter you got a sweater, she'll ask what it looks like. If you tell her what it looks like, she'll need to examine the stitches herself. If she examines the stitches, she'll..." I must be annoying!)

I'm listening to Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor -- the piece that the Phantom's organ music is based on in Phantom of the Opera -- did you know that? -- and feeling peaceful.

I hope I'm not sick on my birthday, though. That would suck. Mweh.

I need to find something good to read. Any suggestions?
