I wish the same, believe me.

But in the spirit of honesty, I think the following hypothetical exchange is more characteristic of a bad day:

Rambi: You won't believe this! Squirrels have infested the attic over my garage and have been pumping out halfway decent prose under my name and circulating it to all the best publishers!

Poet: That's nothing. My kitten has been channeling Yeats and I've been transcribing while sitting in my nightgown drinking mimosas!

Rambi: Save one for me.

Have a great time in LA! Make sure your cell phone batteries are charged, don't forget to pack your mace, and don't let anyone in the car argue with any of the many frustrated drivers you will encounter. Got to Tommy's, and Pinks. Have a margarita at El Cholo (I hope they are still good). Better yet, have two, and call a cab.

This thread having successfully demonstrated the futility of trench warfare during World War I, I hear that there is an effort underway to make productive use of this giant hole by resurrecting the super-conductor super-collider project. Either that, or find some way to store the heat generated and sell it to California at 500% profit.
