I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Scola for the winning shot. I love a brindled coat. Neighbor's new pup has a bit of it going on.

Spent most of the day volunteering. I weeded. I'm glad I brought a change of clothes, because I sweated through every single thing I was wearing, and may have broken my fitness tracker. Maybe it'll start working properly again once it finally dries out.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Well, I also don't own the place. Still - would like to replace the sink and shower surround, and the drawer pulls in the kitchen, and make the backyard usable. Among other things.

t high-fives Scola I think that's the best picture anyone's taken of him.

I can also report that Frankie is very sweet and mild, even with frisky adolescent cats.

He also does well with toddlers and baby goats. Really, I had to move down here so he could befriend a whole new metro area.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Got a bunch of fresh dill -- you don't use the stalks, right? I mean the giant bits of stalk.

Has anyone else watched Time Team out of England? Tony Robinson--Baldrick in Black Adder--is the host, and it's chock full of wonderful over the top personalities digging around England. There's about 20 seasons of the show, with lots of them online. I've watched so many episodes that I'm starting to slash the members of the crews. At least, Tony and Mick, the head archaeologist, seem to touch each other a lot.

I love Time Team, and was really bummed when History International stopped running it a few years ago. I'll have to look them up online now that I know they're there--thanks, Connie!!!

The few Time Team America shows appear on PBS every once in a while and are decent, but are much more scholarly and less quirky.

My favorite British ep (that wasn't a special) was one where they went to Colchester and ended up finding a Roman-era villa's mosaic floor that was just stunning in its fragmented state. This was in some average resident's backyard!
