		<description><![CDATA[I grew up with the expression playing possum: pretending to be asleep when you weren&#8217;t. You know, it was time to clean up your room and you pretended to be taking a nap. Where did that phrase come from? It seems that possums simulate death in order to keep a predator at bay. Seemed a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You should understand that Buddy is no ordinary dog. Yeah, I know, everybody thinks that about their dog &#8230; but there is something about Buddy Bear that invites above-and-beyond behavior from his devotees. Case in point: Cousin Mary, a reasonably intact 80-something cousin of Robert&#8217;s who is otherwise essentially sane.  She has a real jones for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past few weeks we&#8217;ve had a constellation of events to celebrate. First Christmas, then our anniversary, then Valentine&#8217;s Day. Christmas was with our precious friends in Knoxville, and what with packing and traveling, Robert and I sort of postponed actually giving each other anything. &#8220;The trip itself will be our gifts to each [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First, a disclaimer: I send sincere sympathy to people in the midwest, battling that vicious winter storm. I admire how you push on through, persevere through ice and snow and lost power. Having said that, I&#8217;d like to tell you about another side of snow—the delight it brings to folks who seldom see it. Here [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chapter Two of SQUIRREL! CHIMNEY! Last night friend Barbara, the critter expert, suggested that we call Animal Control today and tell &#8216;em we have an agitated animal down our chimney and fear it might be rabid. They would then come and remove it. &#8220;That&#8217;s their job,&#8221; she said. [With an aluminum pole and a noose????] [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Right now we&#8217;re having the Drama of the Squirrel Down the Chimney, clawing at the flue. As Robert said, it&#8217;s like something out of Edgar Allan Poe, with long fingernails scritch scritch scritching at the underside of the coffin lid. Brrr! Buddy Bear the YorkiePoo is heroic. He keeps telling me There&#8217;s something in the chimney, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As everyone in earshot knows, for two weeks I&#8217;ve been on the Every Other Day diet. You do a semi-fast on, say, Monday/Wednesday/Friday, and eat normally (!) on the other days. In two weeks I have lost six or seven pounds (my scales like to tease me) and gained considerable smugness. I have also been [...]]]></description>

As a friend wrote, &#8220;Happiness is the 00s in the rear-view mirror.&#8221; So, welcome to the shiny new-and-improved decade. [Do you say two-thousand-&#38;-ten or twenty-ten? I say twenty-ten because I used to say nineteen-eighty, etc., but I think I'm in the minority. If you vote strongly for either one, drop [...]]]></description>
