OK, so there's a birthday coming up (mine and mersona) on February 5 2010, and the day after that, Natalie Cole's (Feb 6 1950). At least someone try to save the date and as well as a gift for me, do something for Nat (illustrate lyrics of any song of hers, or even a furry version).

Oh, and I keep hearing the others (Kellie, Melissa and ETB) whispering about 'the ultimate gift' when my back is turned. Even though my illness is worsening, it doesn't mean I can't be inquisitive. And, no, I'm not giving up the cigarettes.They're my lifeline. And somehow I know my illness isn't related to the cigs.

*ponders* Just what could this 'Ultimate Gift' be?
