Real bad allergies today and every time I sneeze one of the cats meows back at me. Not sure if "bless you" or "stop it already."

Next month is gonna be the The Lathe of Heaven, which is a book I first read just over a decade ago on my first trip to Portland and is a book I still think about regularly. Maybe time for a re-read.
