Notes has inspired its first poem. Seriously, folks, we’re talking high art here. You can find it at Praying for Eyebrowz (that link’s to the site itself; for the poem specifically, try the first link) and it’s about wood rot. I know, so many poems have been written about wood rot, it’s hard to come up with anything new, but she has. The poem came out of the Comments section of “What people want to know about Americans in Britain,” and I don’t really understand anymore how we got around to wood rot, but we did. Look for Nananoyz’s comments if you want to make sense of it all. And good luck with that.

Seriously, Ellen!? I linked and linked to follow your “wood rot” trend of thought. Your humor usually makes me laugh, and I’m still laughing at it! Christine

Ellen, it’s just one of those middle of the brain creative thinking things that happens. Don’t try to figure it out, it’s not balancing on a tight-rope, or teetering on an edge. It’s just your writing (add crazy humor) genius. Christine
