Weather: gorgeous Accomplishments: few Writing: none Reading: one book Taxes: halfway done Mood: catatonically abysmal No comment. Nothing to say here, move along.
Have you ever been to one of the medeival reenactment 'wars' - a big one, where people bring their pavillions and set up camp? I used to go, not every year but more often than not, to the Pennsic war, which is the biggest event in the eastern half of the country. I was used to seeing inscriptions around in Welsh or Greek, or some other language I couldn't understand. So it took me a few minutes, when I was looking at a particularly beautiful round pavillion decorated with a lovely blue painted inscription circling the upper edge of the wall, that it was actually in modern French, and I could read it perfectly well. It said, in exquisitely careful uncial print,
"Circules, circules. Il n'y a rien a voir."
Which translates quite directly as, "Move along, move along. There's nothing to see here."

Heck of a house motto.
Hope things feel better soon.
