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

OMG! going home would be awesome! I am cranked up with energy (no idea why) and would much rather deal with my life stuff than invoices.

proof: just called and got info on the afterschool program I think we are going to try.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Listen, I'll make a deal with the universe -- everyone that wants to go home from work here can go, provided I land a job that I have to go to and not be at home. That seems like a fair trade, yes?

Coding and Sleeping

I have no energy, my heart went all wacky last night which set off the adrenaline. So I slept poorly. I ended up giving on on sleep for a while and played Bookworm Adventures since I wasn't up to writing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I will need to be up at 4 tomorrow, since my plane for DragonCon leaves at 5:20. I have to make two connections to get there at a reasonable hour.

Now I'm debating whether or not to check my luggage so I don't have to schlep it through two airports. On the other hand, I will be beyond pissed if my luggage doesn't arrive on time.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Otters are always good value. One of the main attractions (for me) at the Philly Zoo was that they had giant otters. Otters longer than I am, quite something to see.

I'm sure I've told this a million times. I saw wild giant otters in Peru. I watched them lying back in the water holding piranah with their all-too-human-looking hands and chomping the fishes like we'd chomp a sandwich.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Gud, your heart going wacky doesn't sound good.

I've got afib, it happens. Most of the time it's under control.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Listen, I'll make a deal with the universe -- everyone that wants to go home from work here can go, provided I land a job that I have to go to and not be at home. That seems like a fair trade, yes?

That sounds like an excellent trade.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Scroll down for pics of a lightning storm coinciding with a volcano eruption.

I'm thinking battle between Ororo and Magneto. (Magma has high iron content, right?)

Matilda is now at the age where she has interesting misconceptions. Like...

Matilda: "Daddy, when I get my powers I'm going to be a big girl."
Me: "Uh, what powers?"
Matilda: "You know. Like this. ::holds arm out level and shoots imaginary power bolts - Psheoo Psheoo! from her fist. I'm thinking from Starfire on Teen Titans::

Also, she's a little confused about the whole Growing Up business and keeps making reference to when I'm going to get little again. Like, "Daddy when I'm a big girl I can drive the car. But when you get small you won't be able to reach the doorknob."
