You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have done All The Things! Saw family, hosted friends, went to a concert, and have even washed one load of sheets in order to return the borrowed air mattress. Phew!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

We went to a 50th anniversary party today for one of my mom's cousins, and ltc charmed everyone. She danced and hugged everyone and was just so delightful.

Unsurprisingly people brought too much carry-on luggage on to this regional plane.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Hil, relevant to your question on FB, there are two guys at the airport who are having a conversation and switching between English and (I assume) Arabic.

I just volunteered to be bumped for $800. Now I see if it works out.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We are home now. Pizza has arrived. After dinner, one of us(probably me) will go get groceries while the other bathes Mr. S and puts him to bed.

I am now in Detroit. I started reading a Zadie Smith book due back soon to the library. I have eaten a salad. I am going to stay off Twitter even before I get on the plane. Look at this adulting.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Went out for breakfast and had the Official Birthday Brunch Food, Eggs Benedict. Spent most of the rest of today loading up my new iPad and slounging. The DH gave me the aforementioned iPad, as well as replacing my Flash t-shirt, which I wore out from wearing every single weekend. Tonight it's dinner at home plus ice cream and GoT. All in all, a perfect birthday.

Thanks, Sheryl!
