Yay, Jilli!
What's that island that doesn't allow cars or any motor vehicles? Mackinac?
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Congratlations, Jilli!

Mackinac Island doesn't allow cars or non-rescue motor vehicles. There are a lot of bikes and horse-drawn carriages. And they have the best fudge in the world. The tourists crowds can get a bit thick, but once you get away from the main downtown area the crowds thin out a lot.

In news with very limited appeal, I finally worked out level 20 of the Euclid game. Took three days.

Timelies all!
Yay, Jilli!
We've got a big trip coming up in August. Worldcon is in London this year, so we decided to extend our trip a bit. We'll be in London for a couple of days after the con, then we head to Dublin for a couple days. Never been to Dublin, so that should be fun. (Yeah, we went to London last summer, but there are plenty of things we still want to see. Plus, we don't have to worry about my folks keeping up with us this time.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am waiting for Big Work News, and it is killing me! I'd better hear tonight.

Jilli! I’m so happy for you. I know how stressful this has been. Hurray!
Have fun in Ecuador, fellow travelers! I spent my first day in Northern Ireland today. It’s gorgeous; really reminds me of rural Connecticut in many ways. ND gets in tomorrow morning, and we have all kinds of fun planned with the family. I was doing well powering through the 8-hour time shift after flying in this morning until I lay down this afternoon “just for a quick nap” and woke up at 9. Oops. But I think I’m tired enough that I should fall asleep again pretty soon and wake up at a decent hour tomorrow, so my hope is that that will be the extent of my jet lag. It’s just shy of midnight here right now.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
level 20 of the Euclid game
I had smooth sailing until level 19. Now I shall have to puzzle a bit.
Is 20 the last level, or are there more?
