The firemen in my neighborhood are real nice. In summer they put out fresh watter and doggie treats....
ION, now we know what space smells like. From the space-blog of that millionaire space tourist chick:
The time went by really slowly, but finally the moment arrived and they were ready to open the hatch. Mike and Misha called me closer and told me to take a good whiff because this would be the first time I would smell “SPACE.”
They said it is a very unique smell. As they pulled the hatch open on the Soyuz side, I smelled “SPACE.” It was strange… kind of like burned almond cookie. I said to them, “It smells like cooking” and they both looked at me like I was crazy and exclaimed:”Cooking!”
I said, “Yes… sort of like something is burning… I don’t know it is hard to explain…”

I get to see Matilda tomorrow. YAY
Yay for firemen!
I am home from the not-really-a-shower party in honor of msbelle. The best part? Her parents were surprise guests! That was awesome.
Jesse, that sounds fab! Did she get good Not-Really-A-Shower loot?
She got some swell loot, including two beautiful quilts, one from her mother and one from a different relative, I forget who.
YAY for Not really showers.
What's mac's ETA, anyway?
I think still up in the air, but the next couple of months.
YES it was AWESOME.
crazy parents with the surprise flying in and I totally lost it.
the other quilt was from my grandmother, mac's great-grandma who goes by GG to the great-grandkids (mac will be # 7).
no ETA on mac yet. be sure, I will let people know as soon as I do.
I have a very good life, I don't always remember that, but I do. really fucking awesome life.
Where is everybody. I am tired, but so wound up, I can't sleep.
