the little black train

Today was, shall we say, variable. Meeting went on about an hour longer than planned, and while necessary, was not desperately interesting. Also, attempted to give blood, and was turned down for an iron count which was perfectly normal but not as high as they like from their donors. On positive side, did get a number of queries sorted, so can feel virtuous on that front.

No, local shop did not have Tatters of the King, but to be frank I'd have been very surprised if they did. It's been reserved.

Spent a while reading Manly Wade Wellman, as John the Balladeer is always good for the mood. Also bought a lottery ticket, which did not win anything. Really, I should have known better.

I heard a voice of warning,
A message from on high,
"Go put your house in order
For thou shalt surely die.
Tell all your friends a long farewell
And get your business right --
The little black train is rolling in
To call for you tonight."

I tried to donate blood last year, but the American Red Cross won't take my blood because I've been to Europe recently. They said that I might have mad cow disease.

Sorry about that. :)
