And, in the mail today, an unexpected gift.
No, not from an admirer (or a female one) - rather from an old friend who I'm too seldom in touch with. A brief note, and a CD - new, storebought (ironically) - "Reverend Billy and The Church of Stop Shopping". With an additional bonus DVD - 16 minute "Preacher Feature", and tracks such as "Remove Starbucks and Disney", which as I'm tired now and shortly off work I'll wait until tomorrow to enjoy. Or maybe until I have the boy, let him revel in the irony and pleasure. Delightful!
