Bon voyage, Consuela!
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Mac has had his license less than a week and no real problems, but he has been gone from home for more than 24 hours. which? no. not cool. I approved a sleepover last night, but then he has been incommunicado since then. His phone died and rather than come home and stay, he came home grabbed his charger, did not text me and went to another friend's house I never said yes to. nope, no no. he has been summoned home. I have a Christmas party to go to and he can get his happy ass home.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Bon Voyage, Consuella!

Our wings are not tired.
Grrrr, on the naughty list there Mac!
Bon voyage! Be sure and take lots of pictures to make us even more envious.

I'm watching The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries, with the glorious Diana Rigg as Mrs. Bradley. It's set in 1929 England, so it's fun to compare it to Phryne Fisher. It's kind of odd, because Mrs. Bradley addresses the camera regularly.
edit: this is cool, she's actually a recognized and respected investigator and criminologist.
And David Tennant as a guest star!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So it's 7:15 and I have had breakfast, swiffered the kitchen floor, and given the bathroom a once-over. I think all I actually have to do is wash glasses and put stuff out, so I'm going to sit with my second cup of coffee.
Family comes at noon.

Well done, Jesse. I have made coffee and breakfast. But I still have to make my list. I was hoping to be out shopping by 8. Not quite.
May have to check out Bradley Mysteries, but not today.

I had also done dishes! Since my last post I have done nothing.

Ok, I have my minimal list. My kids. I am not a natural shopper, as in I hate it. I have to have a detailed list so I can run in and out. The problem with this method is that what I have set in my mind is not always to be found.

For us, today is Dominic's 15th(!!!) birthday.
And the last chance to brave the crowds and get the cheese and garbage bags we discovered we were out of at 10 last night.
Garbage bags are kinda important for Xmas festivities.
