For some unexplained reason, I've been wanting to blog all day. Write a few lines at the very least. Or at least cheat with some pictures on the photo blog (which needs to be revived). But NOTHING.

And you have to be supportive about it because he is also the friend you can't lose.  Indeed, it takes very little. ~j~ PS: Don McLean's American Pie plays in my head as I type this.
