This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

We're kind of at that stage now, PM - Penny has gone from "I have to carry a bowling ball around" to "I have to manoevre a large container to which I happen to be attached".

You only *think* you're at that stage.

I'm about a month or so ahead of you guys, and it's amazing what a difference that month makes in terms of the amount of pain a tiny foot can inflict when it decides to attack your ribcage from the inside. (I say, as I attempt to gently rub the spot in hopes of getting her to move the thing to somewhere slightly more comfortable.)

Congratulations, Moonlit!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Congratulations to Moonlit. And also, congratulations to Jim and Penny! Influencing impressionable minds of the smaller people all over the world!

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

...I take it "High School" in the U.S. is the equivalent of "Secondary College" in Australia...

Yup. Calling themselves a "secondary college" is just a fancible term some high schools like to use. Gives them delusions of adequacy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

In Canberra, high schools only went up to year 10, while the secondary colleges had years 11 and 12.

I'm sorry? Remind me how many years you lived there?
