Oh, and krav and surfing. I think that's the whole weekend, if you don't count the laundry and cleaning, which I really don't want to.
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
AH! Little Miss I Don't Work Until 10 AM! See where your flaunting gets you?
I have another new list. Kat's on it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Weekend plans are Farmer's Market, The Aristocrats, the rest of the Fringe Festival, and an 18-mile run. Whee!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Man’s best terror deterrent? The dog
Cute article.
In the Washington area, the dogs usually are not stationed at the top or bottom of escalators, where each passenger walks by. Some days, the dogs and their handlers walk through the dark tunnels on catwalks. They press flat against the wall when a train whizzes by. When it is time to get on escalators, the dogs look anxious. Their handlers hold up their tails so they do not get caught in the moving stair.
Andy's motivation is basic: the next meal. Once an ATF explosives dog has been trained, he is fed only after he finds an explosive. Three times a day, Andy's handler hides shell casings or explosives in a field, car, building or the woods. Andy, who wears his own police badge, has to "alert" Special Agent Sheila Fry, his handler, when he smells an explosive, by sitting down at the spot. Then she hand-feeds him. She has a small "dog slobber" towel attached to her belt next to her gun.
"We don't like to say he flunked out of seeing-eye dog school. I think of it as more of a career change," Fry said. Andy "couldn't overcome his desire to sniff, track and hunt. He's great at finding explosives."
I love the part about the cops holding the dogs' tails so they don't get caught in the escalator. And the "dog slobber" towel. And that the doggies get their own badges. And the "career change" dog.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I'll alternate between the movies and the pool this weekend. With a trip to the city to meet my friend who lives in France if she can ever check her email to get my phone number, since I have no other way to get in touch with her.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Buying a vacuum and then lots and lots and lots of cleaning tomorrow.
But I am leaving early as a reward for working late on Tuesday so I'm taking it as a win.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

- I need to clean the apartment. See [1].
- Not much else.
