Glad you are okay, msbelle.

I still have to bake cookies. Who made this terrible plan? But, to look on the bright side, now I know the whole of Grasping the Bird's Tail and the beginning of Bagua Fish, maybe I can practice some when the cookies are in the oven..

In the oven. Tired. Waking up at 5:30 9s gonna suck. And yet, I am confident that figuring out how to carry these cookies in to the office will go better tomorrow morning than if I try to resolve it tonight.

Well, those did not hold their shape at all. Oh well, they are still, presumably, cookies and edible, so whatever.

now I know the whole of Grasping the Bird's Tail

Oo, I know that one! But not Bagua Fish. We are learning different forms. I want to do Tai Chi with you some time so we can teach each other the different versions

Glad all went OK, msbelle.

I'm waiting for a ping, it may be a while.

Oh! Theo! Professional question: do you know where the customer is headed before you pick them up? This came up in conversation the other day.

I'm sure the cookies are delicious, -t!

I was just thinking how we could practice together, Burrell! Seeing what the differences are would be so interesting. I think I am learning Yang-style short form, fwtw.

I'd better sample a cookie or two, make sure they are okay before I feed them to my coworkers...

Walk in to land in the midst of massive communications fail. That was 2 hrs I didn't get anything planned done.

That doesn't sound fun.

Man, there was a bicycle on the road I take to work this morning, which isn't terribly uncommon. There's no shoulder, and he was just crossing the railroad tracks when I approached him (going the same direction) so I just slowed way down 'til we were done with all that and I could safely use the oncoming lane to pass him. Two cars passed me while I was crossing the railroad tracks. Two! People are idiots.

People are the freaking worst.
