Also, hi. How is Greece?

Also, hi back! Greece is hot. Not as hot as Phoenix/Tuscon, but in the 90s. And still boring, but I've signed up for free scuba lessons at the embassy next month. I doubt I will ever get to go diving, but at least learning how will be fun.

Sometimes living here sideswipes me, tho - I was out on the balcony pulling the shutters closed at sunset last night, and the sun was blazing orange, setting over a jagged range of mountains, and I suddenly thought that 2000 years ago, another woman might've stood just here and watched the sunset, just as I was. And then I thought, actually, someone has seen the sunset over those peaks every day for thousands of years.

Whoa, dude.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Raquel, that link... um... I can't even... gah.

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

That is a cool thought, Raquel.

Scuba is fun! When you come back to CA, maybe we can all go on a dive.

My gloat was the shortest gloat ever. It is now officially over. Wow.

Aurelia, I ate a tamarind ball today. It was yummy.

Now I wish I was in Greece.

Yay.

That reminds me that I need to make it to the post office tomorrow.

No, continue to gloat. I'd trade with you in a second. Music and cool weather and a little rain in exchange for dust, heat, and boredom!

Aw. Thanks. I do love my home. But I sure wouldn't mind visiting Greece. I haven't left the country for altogether too long, and the feeling of that kind of history is one of my most favorite things.

Timelies! I'm damn groggy this AM....

Now tagless for your comfort.

Greece is very pretty. But I've just seen the pictures DH brought back from his trip in college. He swears we're going to go together someday.

I also miss being the one to order office supplies for my office. It was a great way to indulge my fetish for cool pens/markers/highlighters on somebody else's budget.

Not groggy because there were 11 whole, uninterrupted hours of sleep last night.
