Singing and praying with my mind stayed on freedom

Yes, I nailed that high F. (All three times I was supposed to, too.) Notes about the rest of the service here.

A sign that one has been discussing Roger Federer far too much the past week: the Gmail ad marquee links to a recipe for "Spam Swiss Pie."

Then again, that exho was one of the funniest things I've watched in weeks. I understand that it's archived at espn360 and on YouTube, and if I didn't have two fics still kicking my ass (never mind the perennial List of Doom), I'd be replaying the thing over and over. (Especially since Roger whistling at Rafa's tush is now canon. As is both Nole and Kim Clijsters massaging Rafa's right thigh. You folks who don't follow tennis are missing out. *g*)

Mainly to geri_chan (whose fics make me hungry), marginaliana and valis2 (partners in crime and dining in Chicago) and amanuensis1 (who IIRC is also a Wow Bao fan): I was craving steamed buns last week. I was not in the mood to drive across town. Hence:

Quoted in my other journal as well, but worth repeating:

It is better to concentrate on what can be done than to despair about what cannot be done.
