Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The yankee gift swap with my office party of 21 people took 45 min. Not horrible, but pretty lame actually. I swear we average over an hour in my family with like 10 people.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm doing a Yankee Swap thing for the first time this year with Laga's purportedly awesome family. Let's hope someone likes my gift!

Well, I finally got myself registered for MLS class in January! I just have to mail in a few forms, track down my immunization records from my doctor and mail that in, and send in my check after I get the money.

Intro to Library Science, Tuesday evenings, 6-9 pm, from mid January to first week of May--I'm so excited!!!

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

Yay, Kathy! I know you've been wanting to do this -- so excited that you're starting!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Christmas morning gift-unwrapping in my family (of four) usually takes about five hours. We play a lot.

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

Yay, Kathy! That's so exciting.

Quick reality check - how crazy would it be to have DH bring home a rescue kitten from NOLA next week? My friends who do rescue all the time have it, we are not its only chance for a home, but . . . I think I want it.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Yay Kathy!

-t, Well, we are crazy cat ladies over here, so I'd say DO IT!

Glad you're home and feeling alright, Burrell.

Thanks, GC, that may be just the enabling encouragement I need.

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

Just as a quick double check--punching people just because you want to is still wrong, right?

My cats have a special sense on knowing when I need to get up, and jump up about 30 seconds before that.

I never knew dreamt, spelt, etc. weren't universally cromunlent words until now.

Canadian debit cards are on a per transaction basis. But they are also controlled by the banks and not CC companies. I think the CC companies are supposed to hit our market soon. Canada is one of the biggest users of deit cards in the world.
