My sympathies, Kristin.
Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Kristin, that is horrible news. I am sorry for her parents, family, school, and indeed the world for the loss of your extraordinary student.

Sox, I have to update my online appointments first and prep for next week. I'll hope for around 3 or 3:30.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
The idea of semester breaks here is a break from school, on which you get lots of tests and papers to write.
Clearly you are getting the short end of the stick here. You should go to an American school, where Spring Break is filled with partying and frolicking (not that I ever did those, I was usually studying), and summers are filled with relaxing (or taking summer classes to graduate earlier), and winter break is filled with holidays and spending time with family, which may or may not be better than doing papers and tests.
After 1 day and 2 hours of rehearsal on stage, we have made it through "Let there be light." Ya, this is going slow.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm sorry, Kristin.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I just finished placing an order at Hickory Farms [link] online.
They have an "up to 75% off" sale going on and I picked up a "Family Reunion" $75 box for $11 or so, and some boxes of Sugar Free Petits, and a few other things. Still has shipping cost, but I added a keyword of "clipper" I read of from a deals website and got another 15% off.
I thought maybe some of you might want to take advantage of this sort of thing.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Kristin, I'm so sorry. All my deepest sympathies to her family, and my wishes for strength, peace, and understanding to all who love her.

I dropped Casper off to be fixed
All good thoughts to Casper and the vet, and to you, GC. Also? I did a double-take and had to check the author of that post. IJS.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
You should go to an American school
A-ha. An American university, one which won't happen to be few blocks from you by any chance, right?
But there are few days for holidays here.

I think Edison already got that part.
