When my knuckles felt sore on last weekend's kayak outing, I chalked it up to the unfamiliar activity, but today my shoulders and other joints are really sore too and it's reminding me of the way I felt twice before when I came down with Lyme disease. And then there was the unexplained vomiting on Saturday. I haven't seen any ticks or bite marks on me, but then I didn't either of the previous times either, and I have spent some time in the woods over the past couple of weeks. My first case of Lyme was spectacularly awful, with purple leopard spots that started on one foot and spread all the way up to my hairline before receding back down, and for at least a couple of weeks I was a mess of jelly, barely able to walk and unable to eat anything but jello, saltines, or rice in chicken broth. My doctor even took photos of my freakish leopard-skin for her med students. I think it's time to make an appointment for blood work. Argh.
A little justice in Movieland

Today's guilty pleasure
Sitting on the couch this morning, late for work, rereading parts of The Believers by Zoë Heller while listening to "Let It Bleed": two great tastes…

That book meme everybody's doing
#1 What author do you own the most books by? It's probably Shakespeare, not because that's what I read most often but because I'm awful about…
