There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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

tommyrot, I hope your flight is uneventful and that time with family is soothing for all of you.

too large brain in a too small skull

Cavalier King Charles? I saw a particularly horrifying documentary on how breeding for show dogs caused that trait.

Go, msbelle! What's your stance on cilantro? (I also do not know "birb")

Coding and Sleeping

I prefer Star Wars to Star Trek.

First of all, this is wrong.

I like both cats and dogs and do not think that one should not have to choose.

This sentence is off. Probably the double negative. Also, dogs are superior. That's just science.

Oh, Gud, and you seem such a reasonable man.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

The "Future empty-nester seeks important birb" is perfect, IMO.

(For the non-Tumblr people, birb = bird. No, I don't know how it came about, either, but I find myself using it.)

Hiiiiii. I'm back from Disneyland. It was an awesome time, and I spammed my various social media accounts with photos. I'm home for two days, then I head off to PDX for the Vampire Masquerade Ball.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also, dogs are superior. That's just science.

Bad science. That hasn't been peer-reviewed.

I'm now in a cheap Motel in Oakland. Traveling is exhausting!

Finally got to talk to my uncle Tom (I'm named after him) and he said that while my aunt doesn't want to see any of her friends, she'd be happy to see me and my sister. So that's good.

Tom says we can stay at their house in Lafayette. The hospice is further away in Alamo. Hopefully my sister and I can get refund for the nights we paid for but won't be staying.

eta: Reading On The Beach on the plane flights has left me in a weird mood.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've done classes on both Coursera and EdX (mostly palaeontology on the former, Chinese history on the latter. I think Hil's used another MOOC provider too.

I've used Coursera and Udacity. I liked Coursera for more humanities-ish things, but Udacity had a much better system for learning programming.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Birb is a cute cuddly, important and smart bird. A bird is ordinary, anybird. Birb is a friend, cheerleader, mentor, playmate, entertainer, and cuddle birb.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is great, msbelle!
