Our wings are not tired.

Ick. It is only 73 here, with the high expected to be 77. Of course it is also supposed to thunderstorm all day. I'm thinking an inside day.

Forget the shoes and put away those diamonds. A survey has found that women prefer tech gadgets like plasma televisions and Ipods to more traditional luxuries like designer footwear and diamond jewellery.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Did they even have compound interest in Biblical times?

The Biblilcal character I always felt sorry for was Jephthah's daughter. He promised God that if he won his battle, he'd sacrifice the first creature he saw when he arrived safely home. He expected it to be his dog. But it was his only daughter, running out to meet her daddy. He let her have a month in the wilderness to mourn her "virginity", and then he killed her. Apparently she wasn't as important as Isaac. The Bible doesn't even bother to record her name, poor thing. She was just a possession for her father to give up, just as Job's children were.

ION, it was 87 degrees this morning when I got up. And not a Southwestern sort of dry 87, either. Almost makes you want to turn over and go back to sleep in your air-conditioned bedroom, really.

Almost, Theo?

It's over 100 degrees here in New Jersey. Our AC is starting to break down. I'm scared.

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

NBC filmed my class yesterday. I have every conviction that I totally sucked, and now it's on public record. But I'm not sure which record. As in, I don't know what TV show.

It's possible they won't use any of my footage. Which'll be fine. Last time they filmed one of the classes I was teaching, all my high kicks went in the rubbish.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had a crazy nightmare yesterday where Bradley and Alison from PR were the villains. I love them! Why were they so evil in my dream??
