the remeron is here! the remeron is here!

And you know what’s even better? The Canadians sent me three months’ worth and only charged me for one month. And am I going to say anything about it? Noooooo…. So I now have 90 tablets—that’s 180 days’ supply! And that’s assuming I take it every day! Which I don’t! Okay let’s just calm down.
Further, the Cool Psychiatrist called to say the light box is at her office for me to pick up after therapy and try out. It’s increasingly grey, with horrid mood effects (including excessive napping) and I’m ridiculously eager to test this light-is-better-than-Prozac theory. I feel kind of like the dog in the cartoon:
In other captivating news, irritating Panther admin password glitches have the Unnarrator going to her G4’s Darwin kernel terminal and typing in mystical incantations like “sudo nicl . -read /users/unnarrator passwd” and “sudo nicl . -delete /users/userShortname,” all of which is wery wery scary.
And finally, the St. John’s alumni mailing list (featuring choice supercilious posts from the Brujo) is an endless source of freakish links, all of which of course I now feel compelled to share with Dear Internet.
L’Académie française has nothing on Tehran: “Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has ordered government and cultural bodies to use modified Persian words to replace foreign words that have crept into the language, such as ‘pizzas’ which will now be known as ‘elastic loaves,’ state media reported Saturday.”
Mel Gibson is a schmuck in any language: “Apparently he saw Tom Cruise jump on the couch, lecture Matt Lauer about psychiatry and tout Scientology to anyone who would listen in a sudden attempt at career implosion and snorted, ‘Amateur hour. I can top that.’ “
Without further comment: “Three men were last week cleared of charges after one of the global war on terror’s more ludicrous trials. They had been accused of an imaginary plot to produce an imaginary radioactive ‘dirty’ bomb using an imaginary substance. Imagination throughout proceedings was greatly aided by the efforts of Mazher Mahmood, the imaginary ‘fake sheikh’ who produces scoops for the News of the World, which has been known to imagine itself a newspaper.”
And, finally, it seems a Memphis resident has an early Christmas request for Santa—anyway we guess that’s who s/he’s addressing, because otherwise there’s no contact information in this misspelled craigslist ad: “want handgun!!!!!”
And now we are taking the Romanoffs and going to bed at a reasonable hour for a change.
