Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

I've purchased one xmas gift, for my dad. Seriously cool though (black stone bowl FULL of fossils.) Man, I have to do some shopping. Crap!

In a couple of hours, I'll have to check in for my flight, so as not to get stuck in a middle seat. I don't really mind Southwest's seating policy, but that may be because I've resigned myself to being cattle in airtravel, even when they try to pretend you aren't.

Vacation was too short, as always. Company fantastic, location scenic AND I got to see the Griffith. I'm happy about that. It was fun and totally my sort of geek out thing.

The status is NOT quo.

sarameg, ND programmed the sound for the Griffith planetarium show, so I got a sneak preview a few weeks ago. Pretty fantastic, isn't it?

Screw it. I cheated. I was hoping to find a description of how to go about finding the meta-answer, and I looked and looked and looked, and then I found the answer hidden behind some spoiler tags, and I lost all self-control and cheated.

Somehow I think I'll be able to sleep just fine tonight.

What is even happening?

I had a whole brainstorm about making stuffed bread (frozen bread dough, with ham or pepperoni or similar and cheese cooked inside), which we used to have semi-regularly when I was a kid, but haven't had in years, but the italian deli was closed! So much for that bright idea.

Jesse, we call that calzone. You've been gone too long.

Always Anti-fascist!

I love those. But I bet I haven't had a real one yet...you East Coast folk say that about everything! (We just hate it because we suspect it's true.0

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I did the same thing, Sean. Or, well, I got to something with a specific enough hint that one google search got me the answer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, we call that calzone. You've been gone too long.

Heh. No, not calzone. Stuffed bread! I think it's about the proportions, and the pinwheel nature of the thing. Also the lack of sauce on the side.

I'm getting the pig!

Also, Nicole, do you want the second one in the Sorcery and Cecelia series?

Yes, please!

And a pony.

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

YAY SEAN!!!

I will try to send it out this week, Nicole. Unless I send it later.

I've purchased one xmas gift, for my dad. Seriously cool though (black stone bowl FULL of fossils.) Man, I have to do some shopping.

Sara, was this online, by any chance? That's something my parents might like.
