“I won’t get up today, he said
“I’ll spend it lying here in bed.”
-from The Stupid Joke, by Edward Gorey

What a saying to find in your calendar upon getting to work on a Monday morning! Not that today hasn’t been good, so far; I was plied with tea and eatables at the veterinary library at nine, and this afternoon there will be a major tea party here at the main library. So I shouldn’t complain at all, should I. . .
