That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh, amyth, that's just awful about your SIL.

So unmotivated to work today, oy. I was out of town all weekend (like from 6pm Friday to 10:30pm Sunday) with my choir on a trip to Chattanooga and Birmingham. We volunteered with the Salvation Army and sang with a Birmingham choir and visited the 16th Street Baptist Church (wow, that was an emotional experience) and spent a lot of time on buses. It was a great weekend and I really got to know a lot of other choir folks much better, but holy cow, I'm wiped out now. Just want to go home and catch up on Doctor Who and nap and eat salad for the next three days.

I got two of my most pressing errands out of the way today -- got the new city parking sticker, and passed the reinspection of my car, so I can park in front of my house again. Also bonus-erranded, dropped off two bags of donation clothing!

Our wings are not tired.

Kate, did you take pics at the church? What kind of memorial do they have up for the four little girls. I can only imagine how emotional that visit must have been for you.

I am so upset on behalf of your sister-in-law, Amyth. I am glad she is surrounded by her family though.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I went bike riding, and then went to the park at the end of the bike trail. Playground swings are just as much fun now as they were when I was eight.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Ahhhh, got my work computer back. Apparently my memory decided to go bad. A quick replace and I'm back to work. Yay?

Wish that worked for my personal memory. I think something is loose up there.

Woo hoo, Ethan!
