in particular about a minute ago makes me feel queasy. Like
physically queasy. Like when you go down a steep hill or go fast on
the swings kinda queasy. It's like my body's all good with the

out there is readjusts. Enter stage left that falling feeling. I'm
sure I'd make a terrible astronaut.
Bother. Indy keeps asking me for a pet mouse. Last week she was
after a rat. I don't actually mind pet rodents but I'm sure our cats
would love them perhaps a little too much.

My sister had a pet rat. His name was Harry. She loved him very much. He eventually became monstrously obese and died young, of heart failure or some other such obesity-related affliction. But he was funny. Harry the rat.
