I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

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

Holy crap, Kirk Douglas just died at 103.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Wow- I am not sure that I even knew Kirk Douglas was alive!

sara - I opened one more box last night and what was in it? mattress pad. I did not remake the bed.

LOL. One of the things I ended up cleaning out were THREE mattress pads! Why??

I just had a huge stress remover, because my online class was doing one module per week. This module seemed huge and impossible and it is a terrible time at work. We have three weeks to do this module! I can relax a bit. I am still stressed out about the terrible assignment I submitted last week at 11:59 on the due date, but if I get a B, a B is still passing!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

103 is definitely into "sad but not tragic" territory. Not the least of his achievements is having a largely functional family which in show biz is definitely uphill work.

Shrift, I would happily attempt Segway Polo! I fact my brother works for your employer and I'm going to ask him if he got to do that. He would totally into it, as he is a hockey player...

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Was going to bed, then unpacked 4 more boxes in my bedroom. Now bed for real.

DavidS, of the four items listed at the site Gudanov linked to, I use the second one: the Authenticator extension for Chrome on my desktop.

Thanks, dcp!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

See, when I think of shrift, I think slounging rather than polo of any kind.

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

TCG had a two hour delay today because of icy roads but ltc's school did not. So, he took her to school, and I got to actually finish a second cuppa and eat breakfast in my pjs. I must shower soon to pick her up.
