And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The History Channel has a series coming up (in April, I think) called "10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America," and one of the eps is about the Scopes trial. It's quite good -- not your usual cheap History Channel stuff at all. (The whole series is good, actually, but the Scopes ep relates to the current conversation. What they did was to hire 10 documentary filmmakers and said "Pick a day in American history and make a documentary about it." The directors were given almost total control over their projects, and a nice fat budget to do it well.)

I think I just gave myself a blister while frying bacon for lunch.

Even bacon has forsaken you? Dude. The only answer is SGA porn.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Allyson, I like these. [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Even bacon has forsaken you? Dude.

I hadn't looked at it that way, but you may be right. Maybe bacon was just trying to teach me a little bit of a lesson.

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

I have pitched krav to both the instructor and the lady sitting next to me. Plus learnt some process-related stuff too. Which I'm expected to start implementing mere hours after the class ends tomorrow, despite being the only one on that project team with the relevant training.

The class is introducing a process that's a really good idea, that looks like it could be very effective, if only you could convince people to, you know, follow it.

Excellent! How does it fit? I'm kinda awful with sizing.

It's good that she can say my name, but when will I be able to give her the krav spiel to recite at daycare?

It's big, but that's fine. Better too big than too small.

I'm thinking she'll want to take you in for show 'n tell around age 2.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

So when does Em start krav? Seems like a handy sort of skill for an up and coming queen of the world.

I'm thinking around age 2. She's already got some kicking and hitting down. And her head butts? Fantabulous, lemme tell you.
