DH went to High School with his daughter, says the Tofutti, etc. must be her influence, she was a bit of a health nut back then.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It sucks to be them. Aliens. That live there.
Multi-Galaxy Collision Caught in Action
Four galaxies are involved in this pile-up 280 million light years from Earth. The bright spiral galaxy at the center of the image is punching through the cluster at almost two million miles per hour.
Although perhaps it would be very pretty.
Didja' know that our galaxy is going to collide with Andromeda? Well before our sun goes nova and destroys the Earth, we may pass too close to an Andromedean star and get flung to the center of our galaxy, where we might all get sucked into the giant black hole there....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Didja' know that our galaxy is going to collide with Andromeda?
This turned out to be the central driving plot point in Alastair Reynolds first series.

And now I just bought a security system.
BIrthdays are so much less sexy when you are a grown up.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Ah, yes, I remember the stripper pole at my fifth b-day party. And little Tommy didn't have any hair down there, but he did a mean lap dance and pulled all the girls hair and made them cry.

Being a new homeowner, I've been on the receiving end of SO MANY sales spiels, especially security.) I've been actually engaging them to see if it IS something I am interested in. It's either a good deal or I've been worn down.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Entertain me,
Hm. I just got a new camera! I was too cheap to shell out for a DSLR (plus, when I'm honest, I don't want a camera body that's as big as the DSLRs), so I obsessively researched the non-DSLR digital cameras, and ended up with the Panasonic Lumix TZ5. It has 10x optical zoom, which blows me away.
My old digital camera had 4x zoom and 5 megapixels, and took decent pictures. But it was fairly old, and the new digital cameras have really good image stabilization, and that combined with the 10x zoom and 9.1 megapixels is going to (I hope) mean really sharp pictures.
