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

As it happens, I just got that movie from Netflix. I will have to check out the song.

It cracks me up that my parents used to think trampolining was a safe pursuit they could leave me unattended at for hours with no supervision.

Right? We used to visit friends who had one, and off I'd go, no one around. I suppose they might have checked out the window every once in a while. Or not.

So, about surfing - how do you just not slip right off the board? Is there a strip of something that gives traction? Surfing is a big mystery to me. And also cool.

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

how do you just not slip right off the board?

Balance. And the boards I'm learning on (foam) aren't slippery. But it's about balance, and keeping your weight pressed against the board (mine whizzed out from right underneath me today, while I was just lying on it).

Conversations with my parents:

Mom: Well, 30 was a lifechanging year for me. I spent most of it pregnant with you and wow.

Dad: Oh that's right!

Mom: So did you just NOW figure out how that happened?

Dad: Oh shit, we did that several times last night!

(this is after being told that my parents were going off for a weekend in the mountain of "uninhibited sex." God love them, they do their best to warp me.)

I love guacamole.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I put lipstick on a marine. Then we got kicked out. Still, lipstick on a pretty marine!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Sarameg, your parents are hysterical! I hope you are having a very Happy Birthday!

To be fair, the first version was "uninhabited sex!" except dad had several glasses of wine in him.

OK, that's not fair, that's blackmail. But they so deserve it for sharing THAT with me.

I had two naps today. I may never get to sleep.
