		<description><![CDATA[Will 12/12/12 be a special day? I don&#8217;t know. Maybe we can call it the &#8220;Last Party&#8221; before 12/21/12&#8230; which will be the end of the epoch, or era&#8230; and hopefully the beginning of something happier. The 12th of December will be a Wednesday &#8211; and the 21st will be a Friday. I expect there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m so glad I joined Amazon Prime! I live in the boonies, not in a city. I&#8217;m in a tiny town in the middle of the Klamath National Forest. The nearest &#8220;city&#8221; is 75 miles west of here and that &#8220;city&#8221; has less than 7500 residents. Ordering online means a lot to me as there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The kittens are not missing, but I&#8217;m missing the kittens. Last week we finally got the call to take them to the Mt. Shasta Humane Society, a no-kill shelter. They were on the waiting list there since last November when they turned 6 weeks old, and now they&#8217;re nearly 4 months old&#8230; and in that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I believe in setting goals because they motivate me to get things done. If I don&#8217;t have a goal in mind, my mind wanders &#8211; a lot. I&#8217;m interested in so many things it is easy to get distracted into one thing, then another, until I can&#8217;t remember what it was I wanted to do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Things happen that seem inexplicable, then our imaginations kick into gear to try to understand what&#8217;s happening. Sometimes we come to the wrong conclusions and need to explore alternate explanations. I find that many people are quick to blame others or think the worst. For example, if your spouse doesn&#8217;t come home when expected, and [...]]]></description>
