Although, the wedding is in Vegas, so how much is too much there?
No such thing as "too much" in Vegas. Seriously.

Agreeing with the folksabove about the adorability of Tom's smile and shrift's haircut.
How can I be hungry just a few hours after eating souvlaki, briama, and three spanakopita rolls?

Hey! I started the hair-cutting trend:
Anyway, in local news, Darryl Stingley died, 29 years after he was paralyzed in a Patriots game. Sounds like he went on to have a good life but he was still on the young side (59).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Morning, people! I woke up unnecessarily early (per usual), and now seem to be wasting all the time before I leave for Virginia, rather than, say, cleaning my apartment. Eh.

shrift's hair is very lovely. I have no imagination for mine at the moment, so I am in permanent ponytail mode.
Kathy, your new pretty dress is being shipped from someone in my hometown, so now I'm wondering if I know the original owner.
Did I mention gronk? Because, gronk.

Cowboy Junkies were live on my radio this morning (live=via digital phone to the local radio station.) God I love Margot Timmins' voice.
I also love the walk/don't walk signals that have a countdown on them. See, there are a couple of sludgy intersections on the commute and it is very easy to get caught on a red in the dang middle of the intersection. But with the countdown, you know whether it's safe to enter the intersection.
Simple things, in the morning.

Simple things are good. I've been up since forever already. I have to go be Bessie in a few minutes, but Roman, K's dog, is asleep on the bed next to me. It's nice to have another living thing to take care of.
I mean, not just a plant which we also have. But a mammal.

Man, I just read that Bob Clark (director of A Christmas Story) was killed by a drunk driver in an SUV who swerved into oncoming traffic. That's such an utterly stupid way to go.
ION Punxatawney Phil is a FUCKING liar!!! Mid 20s + 40 mph gusts in April = me not amused.
Also, bummed now because I forget to set the DVR to catch RAINES and I won't be home in time to rectify that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I also love the walk/don't walk signals that have a countdown on them.
Those signals were all over the place in central Hangzhou and Shanghai. They would have been even more helpful had the traffic actually obeyed the traffic signals.

Yeah, plants aren't so good at the whole interacting thing. I mean, I guess you could interact with a ficus (Sesame Street seemed to think so...if that was a ficus) and true, it wouldn't barf on your carpets, but...
