Oh, Sheryl, that's awful! What is wrong with people?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You know, I have a really lovely day planned. I am going to have brunch with Beth B and Matt at their coffee shop, which promises to feature good food and good company. After brunch I am heading to the San Leandro Costco to see if they have the printer I want (the Redwood City Costco did not). After buying the printer, some burnable CDs, and possibly a 45 pound bag of M&Ms, I'll drive to Oakland, to meet up with Sparky1 to see the BabyPenguin Movie. I'm told there may also be ice cream afterwards.
That sounds like a lot, but it is all leisurely paced, and I'll still have time to do some house stuff this afternoon.
Yay.

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

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
That sounds blissful, every second of it.
After the movie, you could always go for some gelato.
Today so far is coffee, Roger Rabbit in the living room, church a bit later (I'm feeling bad and lazy, but I'm also scheduled to be a reader), and then possibly taking my friend Charlotte and her son ice-skating at Yerba Buena while Hec putters about here and Emmett visits with the neighbor's son and dog. At some point before the end of the day there will also be laundry, or we are all doooomed.
It's not bad, but I must admit it's no Beth'n'Matt/Sparky1/penguin movie/ice cream. You totally win!

Skateboarder Clears Great Wall of China
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Daredevil skateboarder Danny Way rolled down a massive ramp at nearly 50 mph and jumped across the Great Wall of China on Saturday, becoming the first person to clear the wall without motorized aid, an event sponsor said.
Way botched the landing on his first attempt but then successfully completed the jump across the 61-foot gap four times, adding 360 degree spins on his last three tries, sponsor Quiksilver, Inc. said.
DH and I are going to see the penguin movie today, and then probably check out some of the Bastille Day happenings over on Smith Street. (The largest Petanque tournament in the US, right at my front door!)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
What time are you going to see the penguin movie?

Not sure yet -- BAM has a 1 and a 2:50.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sheryl, that's simply appalling.

I think I need more coffee. I actually wondered for a minute when they built a Great Wall of China in LA.
JZ, you guys should come see the Penguin movie with us.
