Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

The photo I have in my office of a sunset in Cruces is awesome.

I love that view. (A friend of mine had it every.single.day. They have a house on the WEST mesa with glass all across the wall overlooking the valley.)

But then I saw New Mexico.

There is stretch of I-10 west of Cruces that is deadly dull... People whose only exposure to my state is that think the whole place is ugly.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm so getting to NM next time, whenever that comes around.

I've seen pictures of pit mines, but the reality goes down and down and down -- and this huge mine? Is literally around the corner from the town.

There were a large number of "This highway section sponsored by [Company Or Individual Name]" except for the first time ever, I saw "Available" on that section of sign. We were in the damn middle of nowhere, which felt rather orphaned and unloved. You would think they would offer a price-break on the unpopular stretches....

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

DH has MLK Day off. State employee. And he's taking at least half a day on Friday. Which makes it nice for me, since I don't have to find a babysitter for Annabel Friday afternoon when I'm running a wedding rehearsal, nor have to drag her with me to a client meeting on Monday.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Theodosia, did you see my post about how you should go to the Desert musuem if you have time? It is a living musuem, with fun animals and cool cactii and is very cool.

hey do people have a long weekend?

I do, I do! I am probably going to work some anyway, but it will be from home, in my lounging pjs, and possibly preceded by going out for pancakes or crepes, if I can entice anybody to join me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Will & Emma! Woo Hoo! What color is Emma's hair these days? They are really digging Bisbee, it seems. I bet Will is gonna end up Mayor.

Lee -- I've been to the Desert Museum twice before... and as it happens, I'm going to leave almost immediately for there!!!

Didn't mean to get online for so long, but I was searching high and low for my glasses and having lunch and stuff. Now it's into the rented car (I've already put like 200+ miles on it!) and off to the West....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I swear that if I ever get married, finding a reception place will be the hardest part because I find so many things tacky.

What'd you think of our reception place?

I've got MLK day off, but I'll have to work this weekend since covernig for Irresponsible Boss has put me behind on all my year-end duties.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

No MLK day off here. I'm at that nasty point where the next day we're closed is Memorial Day.
