Yeah, I was about to say, I don't know much about the current state of MS research, but I can certainly talk all about the ins and outs of participating in a clinical trial!! Feel free to email me, or have her email me (yahoo, mearagirl)
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OMG. Another totally cool way to propose to someone - in zero-g! [link]
The picture of her surprised look as they float about in the plane is awesome....
This past weekend I went on a Zero-G flight out of Las Vegas, and was thrilled to see that they use shots of your flight in the training video (I loudly said 'I know her' and then realized that that was, of course, a lie). Thought you'd like to know, it was very cool.
While floating around in no gravity, my boyfriend proposed.
It was great.

Aw, thanks. I just sent you what was sent to me. You may have no insights, but I figured I'd toss it to a wider pool ( I have NO insights and this one has been important to me even as we've barely stayed in touch.)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
good news for Monday. I have two friends in their late 50s early 60s - they met about a year ago. As of Sunday they are officially engaged. Over the last year , watching their joy has been amazing. He is happier than I have ever seen him. I am ecstatic.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Dear God, it's morning again (read: timelies, world!).
I can't seem to find where my CouchSurfer-guest left my headphones, so it will have to be a musicless morning since the computer is in the same room where she's sleeping. Sigh.

Timlies, Shir! And here I was just thinking it was time to be getting to bed (I'm on board time, out here on the US West Coast, it's almost midnight).
Of course, I slept in this morning, and am not terribly tired. But I'm done with the internet, and already read four of the five books I checked out of the library this afternoon, so...(the curse of a fast reader)

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I hate to run out of internet, so I vote for "got to bed". There will be whole other new internet tomorrow morning.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
And yay! Headphones were found!
... only now it means I really can and have to work.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Loved the dog vid, but the combination of soft sound and the guy's accent made it almost incomprehensible, even with my computer sound pushed way up. But the dog footage was nice, anyway!
I have a whole FREE afternoon today, which seems like quite the luxury. Eventually the novelty will wear off....

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I dreamt I went on a tour of the Mars colony last night. That damn red dust gets everywhere. You just cannot keep the place clean.
