Also, I think I am approx 60% phlegm. Oak trees were one of the surprise positives on my last allergy test and we camped underneath one.
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I think I was taught the Civil War was about slavery, but I was born and grew up in CT.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Some slavery/ some states' rights/power of fed gov. I'm okay with that, I think, but the place Arizona really failed me was the near-total absence of labor history. Like, I think we had one day on the Triangle Fire and one day on like all of Samuel Gompers and them...pretty pathetic. It took me years to realize that I didn't know my own working class white person history.

I do not have the wherewithal to unpack my Civil War educational history. It's complicated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I have almost 7 years to figure out what I was doing wrong with the interlacing fingers, so I am ready for next time!

meara, where were the batting cages you went to? On Stark, by any chance? I ask because there are batting cages near my sister's house that I use as a landmark and it would really be something if that's where you were.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I was born in TN, in the '50s and looking back, I got a lot of the casual racism in grained. It wasn't until I was older that I realized that some of the songs my older sisters had learned in Camp Fire Girls were about slaves, real slaves.
And I thought the song, In the Dixieland was about me be cause I was born, early on a frosty morn, in Dixieland. Seriously!
By the time I was in High School, and we'd moved quite a bit and far away from TN, I knew the Civil War was about slavery. It was also the height of the Civil Rights movement, so that had a lot to do with my knowledge level.

Neighborhood wine night. And I got my recluse neighbor across the street(who I didn't meet until this weekend! And she's been here 32 years!) to attend. And she's signing up for more and joined a bookclub/foodclub another neighbor participates in. She's super interesting, I think she's just an introvert like me who hasn't been pressed to expand since she retired but is actually really game to meet neighbors if otherwise initiated.
It was good.
