What if the banshee is alive and should come back to haunt me?

My mother has the Mongolian Death Flu. I was hoping to negotiate immunity, but I just blew my nose while talking to Eric and scared him. This is a bad sign.

The constraints of word order in non-inflected languages are really starting to annoy me.

Thy mother hath got , as I take it, an ague--alas, I know no
wise remedy how to avoid it.

I'm sorry to hear. I hope you can avoid it, still, but if that hope's not to be fulfilled, then I hope it's not a full-bore case of it.

Am I correct in thinking that's one of your frequent frustrations, much as the Great Vowel Shift is one of mine?

Get well soon you lot. In consolation, I hear the name "Mongolian Death Flu" is really all jut spin.

With whom does one negotiate the jurisdiction of the Mongolian Death Flue?

*grins* That would make a great t-shirt. Common annoyances in the life of a poet?

Are you writing something or is this work-related?

I hope your mother is well soon. Can one propitiate her by offering some sheaves, or something?

Good luck to all of you in avoiding worse than you've already got.

Hope everyone feels better soon.

And this is why we should all speak Esperanto.
