		<description><![CDATA[After a month of procrastination, I finally got around to going through my garage in preparation for a garage sale I committed to for this coming weekend. Luckily there was nothing scurrying around in there, although there were plenty of spiders&#8211;although nothing worse than a daddy-long-legs. I found photo albums, both my mother&#8217;s and my [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thisismewriting.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2978454&amp;post=785&amp;subd=thisismewriting&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amidst my horrid head cold &#38; Twilight binge last week, I somehow managed to stop watching TV. When I get sick my senses get a little wacky&#8211;I tend to have an extreme aversion to chaotic noise. So, no real surprise that I wouldn&#8217;t want the TV or radio on &#38; instead opt for the quite [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thisismewriting.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2978454&amp;post=783&amp;subd=thisismewriting&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
