You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Is this praying mantis scary? Or pretty?

How about way too fucking big?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Juliana!

Tomorrow I'll do some shopping, then we hope to see the new Harry Potter film.

Sunday we're meeting up with friends for dinner.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

praying mantis = cool , but walking sticks are cooler.

this weekend: DH is on duty so not much. But the guy who is doing our patio did an out lint -- and he isn't thinking big enough. We will remove some plants and make the outline of it. And tonight we will eat tamales...yum.

RIP Walter Cronkite.

He was sort of like a national grandfather when I was a kid.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Walter Cronkite died. It seems fitting to happen with the moon walk anniversary; he was such a space program geek.

I had the pleasure of meeting him once...he was every bit as great and encouraging as you might expect.

Oh my. Bless Walter Cronkite's soul on its passage.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Man, you guys, the last time I talked to my mom was around 2:00 today (it's 9:15 now), and I really wish she'd call with an update on my stepdad's father. I called mom's house around 8:00, but got voice mail. I don't want to call her cell if she's at the hospital.

Not hearing anything makes me assume the worst. I shouldn't, but it's so easy to do in these situations. Gah.
