mmm, vanilla coke.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

There was a clip show? Huh.
I got to see my dad again today. Took him to lunch and then to the train station to go down to DC. Even though it was only a couple of hours, we got in some conversations we haven't before , like the fact he could have retired 10 years ago under the University's plan. But he isn't planning to. It's something that concerns me because I can't imagine what he'd do retired, other than drive my mom nuts and join all sorts of death-defying volunteer organizations. More than he already does those things, anyway. Well, apparently he can't imagine either (other than get OFF of the management of various projects.) I think he's sort of planning on keeping up the teaching and research as long as possible and hoping that he'll avoid being forced to make a decision by instead falling off a cliff during rescue or training! Gee, dad, thanks for that thought!
Then he told me that the wife of an acquaintance of his is still in and out of the hospital a year after falling off Winu Picchu (sp?) and breaking just about every bone in her body. 4 days before he climbed it. And then ended up helping evac a british tourist who had a bad fall.
So now I don't have to worry about my dad's retirement, I have to worry about his cliff clinging!

I'm drunk. I'm about to start dialing. Someone needs to stop me.

Our wings are not tired.
Dial me! Dial me!

STEP AWAY FROM THE PHONE. PUT IT IN THE FREEZER.
Ok, so that works best with credit cards, but still....

Or, y'know, call Laura.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Tom, put down the phone.
Stay here and play with us, instead

OK, I've left messages for Laura and Sue.
This whole drunk dialing thing leaves a lot to be desired.

Sylvester who has never laid about in the sink is now having a nice nap in the bathroom sink. Pictures have been taken and will be submitted to cats in sinks at some point. cutiehead cat.
