We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, I kind of doubled up this morning, and it worked out OK, so I'll keep my fingers crossed! And try not to OD while remaining upright.

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

WHY HAS TODAY NOT ENDED YET?

Our wings are not tired.

Wrong time zone?

Bad planning.

Bon voyage, Sir Edmund... The news made me go aww in the car. Because my dad is such a fan of climbing, I suspect I knew who he was since I was preverbal. How many kids knew Tenzing Norgay's name? He also climbed the mountain Devi is named after.

So if I pretend I am on the East coast (and a better planner), I can go home?

Not javachik

If there’s a good career counseling center in a community college, not a bad idea to save money, do the exercises and get the expensive testing for $25 a credit or whatever, narrow things down, and use the saved bucks for a headhunter or targeted career counseling later. The COM had 3 or 4 MS or MA counselor/teachers. The class was big, like, 35 or 40. Mostly, it was doing the testing and exercises. The group benefit was seeing different people’s process, what worked and didn’t. A few people were repeaters because they loved taking the class.

Speaking of legless lizards, there's one in England known as a slow worm.

[link] Huh. The way to tell it isn’t a snake is that it has eyelids and snakes don’t. Who wants to get that close?

Eucalyptus leaves
The last part of this [link] is about climbing here: [link] It sounds hellish. Forest leeches, giant biting spiders that can take a chunk out of human flesh. Rough stuff.

I like Maud.

Lending credence to Plei’s theory, that was my great-aunt’s name, if you add an “e.” Born in 1891.

I'm waiting for Clara
I know one! 10 years old, lives in Paris with her mother. Her grandmother is a neighbor.

Salute to Sir Edmund. Amazing guy.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I'm waiting for Clara

I teach one, except she spells it Klara.

Peace be the journey, Sir Edmund.

The bad planning is in not being on the East Coast already!

....of course, I was in a meeting while you were probably still asleep, so you've got to take that into account, too.

Probably not, since I had to leave the house at 7:00, but close.
