And now NOVA is showing the mirror lab that APO's mirror was made at and I visited a lot growing up.
Astro is just a small incestuous business.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
his accent is not italian.
No, it's not. But it's AWESOME. Um, I might be on YouTube right now...

Hah. He's a fantastic speaker. I try to make it to all his talks at work.

Shots fired by the Lawrence L stop. It must have happened just before my train stopped there. Whee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sara, I'm not going to lie, I'm kind of relieved that NOVA is like the one of our shows I don't feel like I need to be watching, but I'm really glad you are! ("The Suicide Tourist" on last night's Frontline repeat? Really sad.)

Hah. I'm a total sucker for PBS science shows. Especially astronomy ones, because, as I remarked on fb, there is a 90% chance I'm going to know some of the people or sites or whatever. I'm in a small business, and I have connections from birth.
(Suicide Tourist is on the .2 pbs channel right now, but I wasn't up for it.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am also very over the rain, and even more over the fact that it can be sunny enough for me to wear my sun glasses when I leave the office, but the minute I hit Belmont, it starts pouring, hard enough for my wipers to have trouble keeping up.

Hallo to you all from Mexico. Turns out vacation with nothing to do but lie by the pool or ocean, by yourself? Pretty boring. Sigh. I'm only on the first of six days!
Also the names "Sean" and "Geoff."
I TOTALLY read-and-mispronounced Sean as a kid. My sister was infamous for saying she wanted a "cuh-NOPEY" bed. I think I also may have pronounced it "epi-TOME". There's been others, but I've forgotten.
I'm similar with February and Wednesday. I know how to pronounce them correctly, but I mis-pronounce them in my head for spelling purposes.
Oh, this too! If I ever have to spell those, I have to pronounce them funny in my head, to do it.
Right, on Mad Men? "Sinjin"? Who the fuck is that? Is he a genie?
HAHAHAH! This is totally what I always thought when reading ridiculous romance novels. WTF kind of name is Sinjin? Sounds like he ought to be out with Aladdin.
