Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

SLEEP TIGHT, RIO! BEEP!

Nilly, Purim always seems like so much fun.

Are you ready to be strong?

I love Purim.

We have enough time, but just enough. There are so many little things to organize. It makes my head swim.

OK, bed for real this time. Goodnight!

Purim is so much fun. It can be really serious, too - it's about a serious topic, with serious thoughts and the like, but it's all coated in lots of fun. The combination is what makes it best, in my opinion. Oh, and the cookies.

How are you doing, Trudy? Are you back home yet or still on vacation?

I'm still in Salt Lake City with Amy P and Kenny and the DH and the kitties and the birdies. I went to the Aviary today and wrote about it in Bitches. It was amazing. I met a Bald Eagle, Nilly -- it was roughly the size of you.

Oh, say hi to amy for me, please?

You went to the aviary with Kenny? Lucky you. And, um, I bet my shoe size was still larger that that of the eagle.

Hi Nilly!

I'm such a geek. I'm posting from my sofa right now on my brand new Mini Mac. I have no willpower.

The eagle's wingspan is larger than if I stretch my arms out. By two or three feet. And she can exert a thousand pounds of pressure per inch with her talons.

She's sitting there on an arm a few feet away from me because she feels like it. So hugely powerful -- its staggering.

Hi, ND! I don't think I even got to congratulate you on your move to the new apartment, so I do now!

Trudy, that's amazing.

I'd love to stay and post some more, but I have to finish preparing a lesson for soon, so no more play for me. Night, night-shift!

I should actually head to bed myself, I need to get up in the morning and do a decent amount of editing.
