Is Mercury In Someone Else's House?

[madrobins]

Okay, along with the household sturm und drang that seems to go with having a teenager in the house, today the dog-walker set the alarm off twice and my cousin called to tell me my Aunt Linda had fallen and broken her hip; sadly, because she's over 90 and pretty frail, she's not a good candidate for surgery, which means she's unlikely to heal and survive on her own.

Could we have some puppies and daisies for a while? Please?
