Now I understand why my schools had us playing dodge ball on rainy days in gym class.
They enjoyed causing pain and humiliation, so that years later we could get so much more out of that scene in "The Pack"?
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Well, we played dodge ball with Nerf balls, not hard balls, so it was more of a tactical game. Or I suppose you could call it a Darwinian foam free-for-all.
Certainly, there were no squares of people with pearl-studded shirts and tutu skirts, and no line dancing neither.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Now I want to do the Virginia Reel. We used to do that in camp, or something, and the best time ever was "accidentally" being across from the Boy I Liked.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Plei, maybe the last weekend in January or the last one in February?
Okay!
Either! Both!
I can draw, kinda. Not as well as I once could, but practice and all.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Also, did we know about Jon Stewart:
It was mentioned as a rumor, but that looks pretty official! Yay!

It took me forever to learn to tie my shoes. I was wearing slip-on (pre-velcro) sneakers well into an age where it was embarrassing.

I used the bunny-ears method of shoe-tying for years and years, Sue. I blame my left-handedness.

Hell, I tell you! Hell.
Exactly.

The first time I ever tied my shoes, I had them on the wrong feet.
It kind of took away from the triumph.

Speaking of Jon Stewart, did anyone watch last night's TDS? Loved the Big Brother/spying kitty bit, as well as "This Is Wiretap."
