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

Oh no, I must be creepy too. I answer emails quickly.

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.

Sorry! I was sheepish following the herd.

Heh. That was supposed to be a general comment, Theodosia, but I got delayed in posting.

OK, I'm probably the only person who watches Las Vegas, but did they REALLY have Lara Flynn Boyle leave the show by getting blown off the roof like a leaf?

Nuh-UH. That's too funny.

I knew this! But of course forgot when the Galapagos stuff was mentioned. I'm easily distracted.

Never watched it sarameg, but now I want to.

Sheryl, let me know if you got my email. Can't imagine why it didn't go through the other day.
