I am on board, Cash, with yoga tonight! I think I'll go again tomorrow. Today was especially lovely as I got to practice with someone I hadn't seen in a while.
My food is problematic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wait, Fun Dip is the same thing as Lik-M-Aid? I would have thought they were competitors....

Oh, ha ha. No wonder it still felt hot in here. I left a burner on. @@

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I guess so, originally.

Cross-post with Tech, please forgive the interruption, but I need quick help with Skype on a Mac. I can see my client, and I can see me in the video screen, but she cannot see me. Is there something I can tell her to do?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I have always wanted a pet octopus to sit on the tip of my finger. No, it's true, ask H. Ever since he's known me that's been a true desire, once I heard there were octopi that small. Cyuuute!
H immigrated at age four, and was functually bilingual within weeks--he translated for his parents. He had a "yankee" accent (grew up in Philadelphia) when I met him, but decades in the south softened it. He's still bilingual, speaks Ukrainian when with his mom and brother, or they switch back and forth.
Friends when we were in Germany had a four-year-old who played with kids on the street, and by three weeks he was speaking colloquial German, indetectable that it wasn't his first language. He also slid fluidly from one to the other and had no detectable "other" accent in either one.
So I vote age four.

(I realize that was not the point of the story.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Now I'm imagining you with the tiny octopus of your dreams playing teeny-tiny handclapping games and doing high fives with Emmett and the finger monkey of his dreams, and I'm dying of the imaginary cute.

I went to college with a guy who was trilingual, and apparently had a shitty accent in all three. At least, that was the word on the streets. I couldn't judge his accent in Spanish or Hebrew.
