When I imagine the hours and hours of frustration I've suffered when Word tries to guess what I want, this just makes my skin crawl.
Seriously.
Also, we saw a press screening of the Roving Mars IMAX movie tonight. My speaking bits didn't make it, and I'm quite content with that. Still in a few shots, and damn that IMAX resolution is good stuff. It's exceedingly geeky and dorky, but that's a given, right?
That's so exciting, Lori!
I spent a lot of that time with her (at my parent's house) and was there this morning. So I am saddened, but quietly, if that makes any sense.
Oh, Cass, I'm so sorry.
Emmett and I are back from two hours in GG Park. About an hour of that was cruising on bikes through the tall trees on a bright winter day. It's only about mid-fifties out there. We stopped at Stow Lake (after overshooting it by about 12 blocks - all downhill, so it was fun swooping by it. Less fun standing up on the pedals to crest the hill back.) Then we took the paddleboat out on the lake. Emmett had a Cherry Iceee and I had a coffee and it would have been idyllic out there except for my constant griping about his poor boat driving skills. I suspect he had more fun with JZ yesterday where she wasn't backseat driving. I apologized afterwards with an ice cream bar and all was well.
my constant griping about his poor boat driving skills.
not that I have complained about this one, but it drives me crazy when I find myself griping, harping, or nagging about something that in the long run is trivial. An extra two points for you , David , for recognizing what you did - and finding the best way to apologize.
Yeah, I hate that when I realize it's me being the pain, but better than not realizing.
Kat, please!
I'm okay with not having a million stores right near me (my last place kinda did) because I hate carrying that crap anyway. Saving my exertion for krav, I am.
Lori, I told my kids in about you and the robot arm in the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle. They thought you were the coolest person ever.
ita, it was in the magazine section of the paper, and we will save it for you. Can't find it online. Maybe we could drop it off tonight on our way to LAX, or maybe you get it in a week. Either way, it had info on restaurants to go to get lots of different goat dishes.
If dropping by is convenient, that'd be great. I don't plan on leaving the house again today. Otherwise, no worries! Thanks so much.
lori's a good cool card to toss out. "Yeah, but MARS," is hard to follow.
Huh -- has it been mentioned here that evidently author JT Leroy is a woman, but that 'he' has also been portrayed in public
by another woman?
