Our wings are not tired.

Yay for a headache free morning!

So my city email update advises me that there is going to be a Tai Chi class in the park on the intercoastal just 2 blocks from my office. Then I read further and see it is at 11am. What! Do these people not know how hot it is by 11? Why don't they do this at 7am, or earlier so people can shower off and go to work after?

Yay for good pilots!

Does this mean that migraines are something you can beat with a stick?

In all seriousness, that's good to hear.

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

I don't have a migraine this morning! It's very exciting.

YAY

I'm watching a pilot land a jet at O'Hare without any nosegear.

YAY for good pilots.

I am also up too early, but I think I shall be going back to sleep at 7:03, rather than trying to do anything.

eta: ita, you said that Pesto makes your head hurt. Any chance you could be allergic to basil or pine nuts? I am pretty sure I am.

Wow, I just watched that video Tom. That was some smooth landing. Well done.

Perkins, you ARE up too early. I emailed you though.

Perkins, give it time. Pretty soon you'll be able to wake up 5 minutes before the appointed time and be back to bed within 10 minutes!

I think so, Sarameg. I am pretty good about the afterwards part already, but need to work on the before part.

How is your AC doing?

Nora, back flung.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Does getting massages count as a hobby? I could totally take that up.

That does sound like an excellent plan. Or how about watercolors? I don't remember them having any smell. Of course I could be wrong. Ooh! Colored pencils!

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

you said that Pesto makes your head hurt. Any chance you could be allergic to basil or pine nuts? I am pretty sure I am.

Not sure. I have developed a strange sensitivity to olive oil--it's okay in small quantities, but when there's enough that it's really part of the flavour, it makes my head hurt. So I'd been writing it off as that.

Wait--definitely not allergic to basil. Allergic to pine nuts would be okay, since pesto's the only time I encounter them.

Also, re: sleep and shots, listen to sarameg. She's a pro.

Colored pencils!

Nice idea! I can easily factor in collecting as well as using.
