No, we don't, Perkins. We're more the land-based sightseeing type. Though I think we have birdwatching planned on -- maybe it's St. Vincent.
The downside of cruise ships is that you only get one day at any port. And there's usually enough on any island to justify a longer stay. So a cruise is more of a sampler than a way to get to know any place. On the up side, warm enough to wear shorts in January.
We're still new enough to cruising to take the tours offered by the cruise line. (In Jamaica last time, we saw Rose Hall. Home to Annie Palmer, who became the subject of a Johnny Cash song.)
There's absolutely no wind. I think the wind froze.
At least there's no wind?
It's 31 degrees here, wind chill of 20. We're a little startled.

That is so appealing to me -- I'm going on a cruise in January, too, and totally looking forward to it. I've never been on one!
Oh, and ION, I totally shouted out the podcast as word of the year thing in class last night. Because I am that dork.

Yes, that's a positive. Because if we had a significant wind chill today, I might die.
Isn't that convenient. My online bill pay option has vanished from my online banking account. WTF?
Timelies,
Re Alias: I know the show usually isn't big with the sense-making, but why the heck would
terrorist dude
put so much time and resources into
acquiring a state of the art bomb
and then just
leave it behind to try and kill Sark with it
instead of just
shooting him in the head and escaping with the bomb.
I did like Jack's
MI-6 friend
a lot though. And I'm thinking
Sark
is still hung up on
Lauren
considering the whole
blond british woman thing, especially with the letting her into his hotel room and the cuddling
afterwards.
That's funny, Cashmere, because mine's supposed to be offline today too (except I was warned about it a while ago). I'm sure we don't have the same bank though, so how weird.
I was just thinking that Emily! (we have the same bank)
Weather-wise, while I'm not thrilled about the prospect of shovelling, I'm glad the snow has bumped things up from stupid cold to a much more bearable temp.
ita, some time ago you posted asking Plei for advice on linking a multi-strand section of a necklace with a single-strand section. I have a method that works well with cones - any interest at this point? or am I, as usual, late to the conversation?
