I have one word for you, Perkins: Galapagos.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Perkins, why are you making her talk about it? It's much harder to ignore the not-Galapagosness of my life this way.

I'm glad you got a quick and satisfying response Allyson.
Oh no, I must be creepy too. I answer emails quickly.
Yes. Best. Vacation. Ever.
Woo! Details?

FREAK!!
Or perhaps this is all symptomatic of how much my standards have fallen.

I'll be sure to post pictures when I have them, with some details. Hopefully tomorrow night. My desk at work was buried when I got back, and I'm trying to get a handle on the mess.

Me too, Laura, or at least work emails, and usually personal ones too. We can be creepy together, and send each other lots of emails mocking ita.

Will there be turtle pictures? Yeah, that's the thing about vacation. You have to work twice as hard for weeks before you leave, then work twice as hard for weeks to get caught up when you get back. Still, yay for vacations!

Phone calls I never return, so there is perhaps some hope for me. I can ignore the phone easily. Won't even pick it up. Email I have to respond.

Oooh, Galapagos!
Today, listening to a podcast, I learned that deep sea squids don't have dark ink like their surface-dwelling cousins. Black ink in pitch darkness doesn't do much good, so they leave luminescent ink hanging in a confusingly squid-shaped cloud while they jet away invisibly. Is that cool or what?

Actually, Sparky was in New Zealand. I'll be taking the Galapagos trip in a couple of months.
