Bury our hearts in the attic

Me: I'll just print out these poems in preparation for tomorrow night's weird fiction reading.

Printer: *prints all pages mirror-reversed except for the one whose title is in Yiddish*

Me: . . . so we have sheydim in the printer?

My mother: Why not?

(I showed her what had happened by holding the pages up in a mirror. She believes I should do my reading tomorrow from the reversed pages, using a mirror. I am, I think not unreasonably, a little concerned about what I might get if I do.)

I generally blame trowies when my systems play up- I suspect they're related! :o)

It's a worldwide ecological niche—it would only make sense!
