My sister noticed that I’ve been back-dating my entries, and she guessed that it was due to my recent illness. She guessed correctly, by the way; since my bout with flu, I’ve been too lazy to post on time and too stubborn to give up my original plan to paint a Christmas tree in the calendar. Why?

I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve actually seen part of that Paris Hilton tape. H.E. and I watched a little bit of it on his computer when curiousity finally got the best of us after he had received his 100th Paris spam.
