It's on the questionnaire, I can't imagine why. Good lord, I must admire some historical figure, why can't I think of any? I can only think of terrible people.

Why not both? Olga of Kiev

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ok, going with Al Kwarizmi father of algebra and Eratosthenes, who measured of the circumference of the earth.

Based on the questionnaire (other than that question) I think I would make an excellent juror for this case and am unlikely to be selected. We shall see.

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

How about Abigail Adams?

I am waiting for our new couch and loveseat to arrive. We went with a black leather set that was DEEPLY on sale--boring, but should stand up to our animals.

Oh, she's a very bad role model for me in so many ways, Matt!

Ada Lovelace is good, thanks! ETA Abigail Adams also good but I really only know her from 1776 and HBO

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It finally came to me, who I was trying to think of when I said anarchists! Sacco and Vanzetti!!

Not that you should put them down.

Do the historical people have to be dead? Because I want to go with Jimmy Carter. There are some queens of medieval Sudan who might go well.

Safari is on my wish list, so I'm looking forward to living vicariously through you, Suela!
