My Envenomed pal, Anwyn, is celebrating her one-year blogiversary. Go tell her to keep up the good work!

Note to organizers of interfaith events designed to help Christians understand Islam: you might want to pick speakers who don’t dismiss a murder as an “aberration” and who consider it rational for riots to break out over a cartoon.

But if you do choose such speakers, don’t be surprised if Anwyn calls them on the carpet.

I’ve had it. Anwyn’s got it and so does Bean. It’s the curse of EV:

Starting last week, it was like this: Flu for him. Flu for me. Chipper recovery for him, though a lingering cough prevented him going back to preschool (which he just started on Feb. 1 after January’s round, I might add). Disgusting mystery illness for me that involved progressively worsening nausea and the nastiness that goes with that. The only reason the blog had anything was because I was bedridden–just put a few things up whenever I felt well enough.

Thank goodness her mother’s there to take care of them! Go show her some love, people, and maybe some chicken soup.
