Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The limits of my productivity have been to give myself a mani/pedi. Wonder Woman blue toenails, and shimmery bright orange nails. And now I can't do anything, because I don't want to mess up my nails. Besides, almost time to go watch the World Cup final!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm moving underground today. Outrageously hot and humid. Hopefully, it will be better by 6 when I have to go practice.

Because books.

In honor of Juliana's birthday, I just let a bunch of bikers looking for somewhere to park for the music fest down the street use our driveway. Then they bought lemonade from the kids next door, who have a stand set up, so it's a win-win all around.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Fascinating world map alternative to the Mecator projection

Oh, I think that's the guy my sister's company is investing in.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Really, Jessica? How cool!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Classic -- my mother just called and asked if I want them to pick me up, because it's so hot. I said that was ridiculous and bad for the earth, and I would be fine. She said, oh, she wasn't asking for me, she was asking for the pie I made! Hee.
