You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Our wings are not tired.

ita, yes! I have it set for "friends" but it can be shared.

[ETA: I just re-read your question, ita. Let me go check!]

Edited again to add: [link]

Does that link for you? It's set as share to public.

That CJ is funny.

Tea: Javachik, can you put that on twitter too?

Sox, I feel more comfortable sharing the link with people I know somewhat. Twitter would get a lot of RT's but not necessarily anyone actually helping.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've been (typically) extra attentively cataloguing "another thin(g/k) coming" uses, and I have to laugh at the show I just watched that cleaned things up and went for "another thought" instead. I do count that as half a think, but that's the joy of keeping your own lists.

Thanks, javachick!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I meant to say something about that!

Okay! I spent all day Monday hopping buildings on campus and having meetings that were productive. Yesterday and today I've been in a conference all day, and this afternoon spent an hour doing a demo and talking with people. I probably should have practiced what I wanted to say more, but I had two people actually email me as we were talking so that we could follow up at a later point. I think that means it was successful? Right?

It was so nice out today that I ate lunch outside. I'm not really looking forward to the wintry mix I'll be facing back in Chicago when I arrive tomorrow night.

Tomorrow, I get double crowns. Swim in the am, probably sleep after the two damn crowns. And then eat mushy foods for a week. I've got polenta and mushy indian and a willingness to chew on one side...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Good luck with the crowns, sarameg!

Have a nice flight back, shrift!
