There are people that eat the body meat on a lobster -- they have to be pretty big to be worth it.

Or you have to be a very determined eater, like me. One of the things I like about eating lobster and crab is that it's part food, part treasure hunt.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

How long until you move? Do you know yet where you're going to be, or do you still have to house hunt where you're going?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Isnt that weird, Dana??
It is. Mostly it's depressing. HMOG, the dust. I swear we vaccuum. And yet there are piles of dust where furniture used to be.

Probably about two weeks for me. We already have a house on the other end, so I think the only giant hurdle remaining is getting our stuff moved in there. And at least that won't be happening in the humidity of a Houston summer.

Five Myths About Sleep and Insomnia
1. Humans Need Eight Hours Sleep a Night: There are many ways of sleeping and few cultures sleep in eight-hour consolidated blocks like we do. In places like Bali and New Guinea, people tend to slip in and out of sleep as they need it, napping more during the day, and getting up more at night. Until the industrial era, many Western Europeans divided the night into "the first sleep" and the "second sleep." They'd go to bed soon after dark, sleep for four hours then wake for an hour or two during which they'd write, pray, smoke, reflect on dreams they'd had, have sex or even visit neighbors. In fact, there's some evidence to suggest that this sleep pattern may be the one most in tune with our inherent circadian rhythms.
