Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is what everyone is saying on facebook. (Also hilarious: All of my coworkers posting on facebook throughout the day.) Actually, we have two in this office of ~25, and one at the other main location.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Liese, do you have the second feeder out of sight of the first?
Yeah, I do. One is on the window of the sunroom, south-facing. The other is at the corner of the dog's kennel, northwest corner, visible from my office window. What this has achieved is making my whole house a battle zone. We keep getting strafed by them as we come out the front door. The SO wants to add one to the north-facing porch, which would make their hummingbird overlord plan complete.
And yeah, msbelle, definitely making the preparations now is a good idea.

I'm re-doing my syllabus for work. Instead of the usual grade offerings, I contemplated these grades instead: Epic Win, Win, Meh, Fail, Epic Fail.
Good plan?

They just had Tania Aebi on NPR! I read her book (Maiden Voyage) about her teenage solo sail years ago, makes these kids doing solo sails these days wimps. She had no gps, no internet, sailing by sextant.
I think of hummingbirds as fierce fighters. I think >1 hummingbird falls under the definition of war.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I know someone named Eowyn. It is her legal name, though not the name she was born with. (She changed it when she got married. I guess she figured she was changing one name, why not both)
