Nice and toasty here! I wish I didn't have to hide.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I still can't believe I'll be in Denver for less than 24 hours.
I saw this great presentation on language and power and the colonial use of language vs. native languages. It was very inspiring. But I so do not have the time or energy to teach like that. And my unquiet mind kept thinking, "it's important to learn the language of power too." If you only speak a native language you lose access to some social mobility!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Wow, it's been quiet here...

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I'm watching the NFL draft. It's pretty exciting around here. Or not.

HEre's hoping that Allyson's move went smoothly!

I'm still at my friend's, helping as best I can.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
And you haven't killed her yet, Theo? Go you!
I wish Allyson a good move with a minimum of trauma.

Hope the move's going well.
In news of me: I'm a giant sap of epic and pathetic proportions. I just randomly flipped to USA, and the last five minutes of a movie about sled, possibly rescue?, dogs is on. I can tell that the humans who've come looking for them are expecting them to be dead, and so it seems at first... but then, no! They're alive. And I tear up a little. Aw, but there's one missing. Just as they're about to leave, one dog takes off for the tundra... only to stop at the body of the missing dog. Her owner finds them. "Good boy, Sam. You brought her home." Sadness. More tears from me. But wait! She's not really dead! Just super cold and sluggish! Yays!! Didn't even watch the movie, and I'm all teary. @@ at self to infinity.

Was that Eight Below, Jen? I keep meaning to catch that on cable, but then it always turns out to be that Cuba Gooding Jr. movie instead.

Ha!
You know, I didn't catch the title. Sounds plausible, though.
