To everyone that's written, thank you for your kind words. Flounder is doing much better, having suffered, at worst, a rather substantial concussion (as I've put it, once that clears up, I'm certain my father will entertain giving Flounder another one). The car isn't doing so well, but I take the good with the bad.
My trial stretched across the week, right up to the poing when I wrapped myself in blankets and slept through most of Good Friday. Today, my Nyquil-addled mind is wrapped around Bob Adelman's and Tess Gallagher's Carver Country: The World of Raymond Carver (here's the Amazonian link). Old, derelict shacks and roughneck motels that dot the Yakima landscape are my afternoon. I am loathe to spend the day at home, being sick.
A few months back, I went the Wednesday night punk rock bowling show at Asbury Lanes. Old Troma Studios horror movies on a sheet across the middle lanes, a bad, angsty punk band churning out power chords in front and a good cheap bar in the corner. I'm a fan. Swing by, have a bucket of tater tots, a PBR, and smoke a Lucky Strike. It'll be good for you.
that is awesome!
