David woke up with a fever last night, and is sick in the same way he was sick last week:  fever, with no other apparent symptoms.

I can’t think what is causing this.  The Evil Eye, maybe?  Who gave my pretty baby the Evil Eye?  I need to get myself an egg and bowl, I think.

Talking of evil, the Chronicle reports Houston is being invaded by a new species of ant.  They don’t sting, fortunately, but they invade yards, pools, and homes in plague-like swarms.  Their willingness to nest in electrical boxes can cause thousands of dollars in damage.  I have a sudden urge to move.  I’m thinking someplace far.
