Sharni ~ Just tell me that it's Jan 23rd in Oz...I'm too simple to know it isn't. Thanks sexy!

Irezumi Kiss ~ As long as nobody's moaning "TameIrish" I'll be ok. Plus, someone told me this will be my best year ever. I'm sticking with that.

Lixy ~ Though it wasn't wild & crazy, it was a nice birthday. Thank you, and I hope Mr. Lixy remembered to plug in the outhouse warmer last night!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
