Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Okay, my suitcase is packed, a day early. And even though it all fits in a carryon, I feel like I've gratuitously overpacked.

You're going to England with just a carryon, Sue? I'm impressed.

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

It's a gorgeous day! 72degF, breezy, cloudy with sun, the perfect day for staying inside and opening all the windows and cleaning things.

Looking forward to your trip reports, Sue! I can barely pack for a weekend in a carryon.

Yep. Four dresses, a pair of pants, three t-shirts, leggings, two pairs of shoes, rain jacket, and three cardigans. I did take out one sweater, since it's supposed to be in the 18-20C range while we're there. The pants are the only thing I am questioning, since I rarely wear pants these days.

If you take out the pants, what will you wear the t-shirts with?

Good to have them if you need them, though. Not that I can think of a pants-requiring situation off the top of my head, but I just made coffee, my not being able to think of it hardly signifies it isn't common.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I turned the heat on last night! May we finally be past those damn 90 degrees.

I normally have to change the bed around a 25-pound dog, which involves shooing him from one side of the bed to the other. Today, however, he was outside when I started, but trotted in just as I got to the blanket. He jumped for the bed just as I flipped out the blanket, and landed on it when it was still a few inches above the bed. He curled up and looked at me as though he had planned this Olympic feat.

Have a great trip, Sue. I always wear pants, so to me, every situation except for perhaps meeting the Queen requires pants.
