Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Lyra Jane!
It's going to be a quiet weekend since G's still in Seattle.(He gets home Sunday night) I have to do more clothes shopping, oh joy.
Simon: You are my beautiful sister. River: I threw up on your bed. Simon: Yep. Definitely my sister.

We've lost a good one. Madeleine L'Engle dies at 88
Man, that's a bummer to read. A Wrinkle in Time was one of the great nostalgic joys of my childhood.

Other Side of the Sun is my favorite L'Engle. I remember it as heartbreaking and horrifying and I haven't read it it nearly 13 years. Lost my copy. I guess I'll have to get another.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a list of information and I need to find its provenance. Apparently I wrote the list. I have absolutely no memory of this at all, and have no idea if it's actually good data then. Hrrm.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Just for you, sarameg: It's a whole new Ellen this year! Political Ellen! She's already talking about Larry Craig.

Puts paid to "good enough for government work." Go team lori.
Also, someone keeps wafting tremendous cologne/perfume past me, but I can't work out who it is.

Heehee.
There was a just a piece on the radio (by a friend of lisah & Kat) on his experience on jury duty in Baltimore City. Up to the way his jury pool got along, it could have been mine (my jury all agreed and cooperated with one another.) It was funny. And neat, in how it shows how uniform the experience can really be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
