Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Going to bed btw 11:30 - 12 should not = being awake at 6. Still, am awake.

This is so my life. This morning my big triumph was getting the little wiggle (my son) to fall asleep again after he woke up at 5 am, thereby allowing me the decency of rising at 7.

I'm sorry you're sick, msbelle.

I'm kind of anti-torture, period. But then again I don't watch 24 or Alias.

yeah, I don't really feel sick anymore, but I don't wanna stray far from home just in case.

I'm glad the babysitting is working out. little wiggle...hee.

I love the cozy Sunday at home thing anyway. Especially if either tea or hot cocoa is involved.

Little wiggle is an apt name for him. He's VERY wiggly, especially when his diaper is being changed. Which, btw... um... I better go check.

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

It's a gorgeous day here. Yay.

I need to do some work and some cleaning today, but first I believe I am going to go out to breakfast and run amuck at Target and Marshalls, and maybe even Old Navy.

Hey Burrell, I got your message and I've been swamped (in fact, in class right now!) This friday is sort of open. At least in concept.

ita, I'm not disagreeeing that one opinion is not the sum total of a person. But your comment was making me think about what I think a person is, beyond part of the food chain. I'd say that we are an amalgmation of our thoughts and opinions and memories.

It gave me some interesting things to contemplate on today's commute.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We're an amalgamation, yes. If all a person's stances are naive, then I'd be hard pressed to characterise them otherwise.

But even if a person is naive I think it's an important rhetorical distinction between an opinion and a person--let's just call all the other stances inadmissible in this court (or better yet, merely irrelevant). I don't care whether Trudy's naive or not. It has nothing to do with my point, and as pretty much a personal attack, distracting attention from the debate at hand.

This friday would work for me too, at least in concept. Let's try to make it happen.

I'd say that we are an amalgmation of our thoughts and opinions and memories.

Mmm. Interesting. I'd agree, although I'd add that we are also defined by our relations to other people.

I have to go to work; I'm not even going for a run with my sister first. Sigh.

I am working from home. which is considerably not fun, but better than going into the office. and since it is all just responding to IMs and Skype calls from Israel, it is not too demanding.
