I will soon get to work with

jonnorthwood He's starting at my office very soon, meaning I can now perform an assault on his waistline on a near daily basis. I may have to find my French pastry recipes again.
I'm about 30 pages from being done with the Borgia history I was reading. It strikes me that, in the letters between the Borgias and their contemporaries, none of them seem to be aware that syphilis is sexually transmitted- or if they are, they ignore it. Women marry men knowing that they have this disease, or have extramarital affairs with said men. It also only seems to be men who are ever mentioned to be suffering of it. I suppose it was considered more seemly for women to suffer in silence, or something else of the sort.
I'm near out of reading material again, having finished or near finished all I had purchased. I've two more books coming, but at this point, but the wait is making me irritable. I may sulk. At the very least, the older of the two orders probably wasn't sent out on schedule, else it would have arrived here by now.
