For what it's worth, ita, I don't think you're old.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Happy Birthday, Tom!
Oh poor Frances and folks. I hope it passes quickly for her, Burrell. It's tough when babies have a stomach virus--tough on them and their parents.
ita, you're not old. You're just a grown up.
I hate when the clocks change in this direction, and yet? I'm up earlier than ever. I woke at 4:30, which would have just been 3:30 yesterday. Now it's 5:45, which would have been 4:45. I'm going to need the biggest nap in the world, after church, and good luck to me, getting it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Happy Birthday, Tom!!!
I'm up, and I don't care. Daylight savings day is one of my favorite days of the year.

Happy birthday Tom!
Ugh. I'm up. Combination of training myself to DST, being an idiot and having caffeine at 7 pm last night and needing to get stuff done before I go babysit for an afternoon. I'd LOVE to go back to bed, but if I did, I probably wouldn't wake up until noon. And that's a little late.
It seems to have stopped raining.
Paper dude needs to deliver my sunday paper.

I'm up super-late for me, but then was up much in the night with the wee one, who is, like Franny, recovering from a stomach bug. She threw up in the grocery store too - whee!
In sad news my baby sister has gotten rejected from most of her colleges and wait-listed from the 2 I thought she'd get into (Smith and BU). She got into UC, but then who doesn't? I think she has had poor support and advice (I know she has had poor parental support and advice). I really need to get her out of Cincinnati (no offense to our lovely Cincinnatian, but she needs her horizons broadened and to get away from her parents). I suppose she can do a year and transfer, but I'm afraid this is the molasses that will keep her stuck forever.

Hey, wait a minute. My birthday is only 23 hours long this year. What's up with that?

I think that means you're not as old as you think you are, Tom.
Nicole, what a beautiful color you used for Tom's name! Is it a hexidecimal code, or a just a t font color="colorname" tag?

Tom, it just means you'll be one hour younger than everyone else your age. Try to think of it as a good thing. Any big plans for the day?
Cindy, just a color name tag. "#9900ff", in fact.
