I always find books (http://rushthatspeaks.livejournal.com/226414.html?nc=10&style=mine) and food (http://fivemack.livejournal.com/76013.html) very cheering, and there's always the panda cam (http://www.sandiegozoo.org/zoo/ex_panda_station.html) -- and this book may be a learning experience but soon you'll be finished and it will be a book and I'm looking forward to it. We bought Melusine in paperback on Sunday. We spotted it in Chapter and decided that rysmiel needs a personal copy. You rock.
