Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Empress, is your profile addy still good? I sent you an email a few weeks ago but it may have gotten missed in the prep for your trip. Not a biggie, but I wondered.

Connie - it is still good, and I did get it. I am so sorry for not responding to the email. That was rude of me. I meant to, but a million things happened and I just spaced it.

I figured you were busy--not like you've got any distractions in your life, no, not at all.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Oh, and I'm having oatmeal for lunch right now AIFG.

I had porridge for breakfast, but I'm having fresh strawberries right now (for, er, mid-afternoon snack?) AIFG.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Seriously - today was the best part of our trip.

You really made my week, Aimee! I've been stressy about getting the kids out this winter and this really gave me a great opportunity to test my baby wrangling skills without a lot of pressure or stress. And I'd also been worrying about Owen's development but when I saw him & Em together it really put my mind at ease. You guys just rock. I can't say that enough.

Owen's sleeping in today. He was just worn out with all the playing yesterday.

Daniel, that link is just...wow.

From way back, OMG Nora - I have a co-worker friend that hates the word moist.

Me, too! (Well, ex-coworker, but still).

Glances at ragged, bitten fingernails and pathetic toenails. Not going there.

Our wings are not tired.

If there weren't a long enough list of reasons to hang with the Miracleborns, Owen sleeping in is a most excellent reason.

My nails are a disaster. And my SIL owns a nail salon. Everyone seems to think I have an hour or two to go see her. Cashmere understands.

I'm eating moist oatmeal, with cinnamon and it is most yummy.

Mostly lurking...

More pictures! Awesome! Looks like such a fun time. Emily and I went to the museum with another of the Michigan gang and her little girl, years ago. That's a fabulous museum. So fun!

Timelies!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My toenails are a mess, but I never do anything to them. I love manicures, and TCG gave me a GC for our dateiversary, so I should make an appointment soon.

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

Great pictures!

I was at Trader Joe's yesterday and bought a "guacamole kit." It's a plastic produce container with two avocados, two tomatoes, an onion, a lime, a jalapeno pepper, and a clove of garlic. I wasn't really planning on making guacamole, but I'm making burritos for lunch tomorrow, and it was just $2.70. I'm still just looking at it and thinking, "Huh. That's pretty cool." (Some of them had either avocados or tomatoes that didn't look too good. The one I picked out had good avocados and OK tomatoes -- I figured, for guacamole, that's better than the other way around.)
