Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Woo hoo -- a friend just offered me a ticket to see Patrick Stewart in MacBeth!! Of course, it's the same night as the opening festivities of the crossword puzzle tournament, which I've already paid for, but whatever.

My show hit 2 minutes before the hour. I'm just saying.

So did mine!

It's worth getting some estimates at local frame shops, because sometimes the Michael's half-off is still higher. Even if you want someone else to frame something, you save a lot of money with standard-sized frames.

Good to know.

The semi-colon gets some props: [link]

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I just saw that subway sign today. I don't like it there. (I'm also having a hard time drafting this post without using a semicolon because I don't want to be punny.)

Heh. Me, too. In my previous post, I was going to say:

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I never took geography and it was never offered as a class in my high school.

I had geography as part of Social Studies, K12, and straight geography classes in college. I love geography, although I was always crap at the memorization parts. But most of what I did memorize has changed by now anyway, so I don't feel too horrid for having forgotten it. And learning about the cultures and environments is just cool.

With all the moving talk, have we seen this yet? [link] The first picture kind of freaked me out (walking on books! NOooooo!) but then I realized that I misunderstood, and this is really cool.

I wanna go home, but must head to the reference desk. Sigh.
