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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Aesthetically, it's sad that the Wall Arch fell but in the whole "being able to watch geology happen," it's amazing.
Best quote in the article: "Not being a geologist, I can't get very technical but it just went kaboom"
Oh, I wants to tag it, I do...

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I heart geology. Very very much.
Unlike people, it's steady and constant. However, somehow, even when it's predictable, it's strong, amazing and can change your life. And it comes with explosives and acids and experiments and hiking and cool hammers.
Sorry, I think I'm drooling again.

My brother just sent me pictures of D with his hair spiked into a blue mohawk, with an oh-so-serious expression. It's cracking me up.

Me too!
Continents collide and new oceans form and sediments reveal this whole history on timescales we really can't comprehend but we keep trying to, learning more and more. Amazing.

I don't remember which sport they were profiling, but late either Friday or Saturday night, they did a profile on one of the obscure sports, and they used the Stargate Atlantis theme for the background. It was very surreal.
But the Pirates of the Caribbean music was nice for the women's saber.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Urgh. I rather stupidly decided not togo get my meds because I felt OK. Yeah, that was pretty much when I was sitting down. Now I am going to the store and I feel wrong.

Re: Georgia and Russia. There were some U.S. and Georgian missteps that contributed to this - not that Russia does not get the major share of the blame.

OMG, Miss Louise got a kitten! He's all ears and feets! 3, 4 months? I dunno. But she asked me where I got my cats' claws trimmed and I told her I did it myself. She asked me to show her, so I got to go over and snuzzle the wiggly boy and clip his claws. Told her if she worried about doing it, to ask me anytime.
He's a tan and black (coyote colors) tiger tabby, very pretty. And no problem trimming his claws. He only got squirmy when he got bored with being held.
OK, I was gonna vacuum, gotta go do that.

Kitten!
I am now on my way to work. If I time this right, I could possibly be back to my house by 5:00, but I have 6 minutes to make it from the bus stop to my office, find my meds and go to a different busstop. Otherwise I have to wait 50 minutes for another bus.
