Minor annoyances and major victories

Feeling generally poor the past few days.  A possible sickness is creeping up on me, and that cannot happen this weekend.
Mentally, things have been a little scary.  This can quickly be put right too, if I can find the time.

Now, for the good.  My credit card balance is officially at 0.00.  Stage 2 of the Finance Wars has been won.  The next campaign will be waged against the Federal; it will be a long fight but it's defeat is guaranteed, probably within the year. 

Does anyone really ever get out of debt?  I doubt it.  I'll take my A for effort, though.

I'm most of the way through Kushiel's Dart

I was reading this passage on the T, and it made me laugh out loud.

"At my side, Joscelin heaved a sigh."

Ah, my poor sweet Casseline. Brother of my heart.
