Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Since I'm tutoring high school math, I'm running into a lot of problems that I haven't seen in forever, like how to factor binomials and whatnot. It turns out that I have a big advantage over my kids, in that I have the confidence that comes from knowing I can do these things, which puts my mind in the frame to work out the problem.

It's also probably not a coincidence that I became a programmer, which in a sense is just a series of really-big-word-problems.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thanks. It was the perpendicular part I was missing. I still don't see how to do it in the minimum number of steps though. I'm pausing at level 18 because of Things To Do.

Yeah, that I don't know.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Perhaps it is 25 levels, but separate scores for using only the primitive tools or using any of the other tools? Somehow or other the high score seems to be 50.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Kinda crazy shopping going on. Over $100 at comic store. New mattress for Mac (he's been using the mattress from the guest bed). A pet step for old man cats to get into my bed easier. And some replacement outside decorations.

Those finger limes/caviar limes were available through my CSA so I got some. First time cutting into one today. That is a weird fruit.

BRRR. Cheered the half and whole marathoners for over three hours. Roommate came down for the last 90 minutes or so--we were hoping to see a friend of hers go by, but he must've hit a wall or something--he was doing 8:45 min/mile at the 13 mile mark, but we were just past 20 and waited until the like, 10 min/mile people were going by and didn't see him. It was 25 degrees out this morning! So cold!

Well, my little black cat is now taking afternoon naps again with his Daddy in Valhalla. It's been harder and harder for him to move, and this morning he was on his side next to the water bowl, crying and not even trying to get up.

I confess to being relieved that I don't have anyone physically dependent on me anymore. Any plans I make, I only need to consider myself--with fair warning to my housemate.

I'm sorry, Connie.

Totally understandable relief.

Our wings are not tired.

Aww, Connie. I'm sorry.
