somewhere between the dishes, dinner, and pavarotti singing bellini, i lost it.<\/p>\n<p>i am reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0142001279\/ref%3Dnosim\/completereview\/103-6152403-7318205\">the procedure<\/a> by mulisch.  it is heartbreakingly beautiful.  it almost made me cry on the bus today.<\/p>\n<p>my right ankle is a raw pustule of pain &#8211;
