Swiped from Elissa....

There are still places in China where plagues of locusts periodically descend in Biblical proportions. A few years ago, farmers in the region of Xinjiang fought back, gathering an army of 10,000 chickens in anticipation of the invading hordes. The bird soldiers were trained for two months, and when the showdown came, they acquitted themselves admirably. This vignette is an apt metaphor for a challenge you'll face in 2007. While in general the year should bring an abundant amount of sweet luck and high adventures, there will be a locust visitation or two. I urge you to assemble your own personal equivalent of a chicken army. What might that mean, practically speaking? Here are some possibilities: (1) Be well-prepared for natural anomalies. (2) Ally yourself with the enemy of your adversary. (3) Get others to help you fight your battles.
Good grief. Anybody got some chickens they could loan me?
Oh, and I'll be swiping her other meme that she swiped from someone else later.
In other news, I'm now closing in on the tail end of my journey, which means I feel like I'm trapped on a family treadmill set to "orbital launch." I have managed to sort through most of my belongings, though many of them are still over at the warehouse, something I'm not altogether happy about. There's just only so much that can be done, though. Sigh. Still, we do what we can.
