Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

did not get job I interviewed for 2 weeks or so ago.

Bastards!

I slept like crap -- why is it that when I say up too late, I also wake up before my alarm? That shit makes no sense.

Sorry. What clueless dorks.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ugh, msbelle, I'm sorry.

This morning I am enjoying this blog from a NYC bouncer/grad student.

Boo on the not-properly-appreciative people.

I can see a white dogwood in bloom outside my window. This makes me happy. This seems to be peak springliness for this area right now. It is fantastic. Dogwood, tulips, azaleas, the pink petalblizzard trees, tulip magnolias...

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

I woke up at 5am with a pounding head from this cold with an added migraine for extra crapaliciousness. Walked the dog, took meds, stood in the shower for a long time and stumbled out the door to go to work. I was rewarded for my devotion to duty by seeing a hummingbird hovering over the flowers in our yard about two feet from me. So cool.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sorry about the not-gettingness, msbelle.

First morning at the new gym. They better pare down my krav teaching schedule soon (to the tune of five fewer classes, though I will be sad) so I have enough energy for everything (or anything) else.

I like the Element, but it has the same problem that almost any potential minivan replacement has. The highway mileage would not be enough of an improvment to overcome the cost of changing things and the loss of cargo space and seat space. The minivan typically gets 23 - 25 mpg on a trip, but even at 30mpg, we just don't save enough money to cover the cost of getting something else. Plus, the van is under warrenty, and has gobs of space.

I hear you. We're just starting to deal with the possibility that our next car will, in all likelihood, be a minivan.

One of the big minuses of the Element that I was going to mention is the way the doors open. Because they both swing outward, there's simply no room to get into the back in tight spaces, which is a little inconvenient when, say, you have an infant in a car seat with you.

I am looking online at pink flowering trees that I can buy for my building's garden. trees are expensive.

They are indeed.
