Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

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...

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

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.

My grandmother has flat-out stated she refuses to die while the dumpster-fire-in-chief is still in office, which means she'll make it to 101 at least. Obviously I want her to live forever, but preferably spending the rest of her 2nd century living comfortably with 46's universal healthcare plan.

Be careful out there, sj.
My great niece and two of her friends stayed here last night and DH just took them to Miami to hop on a cruise. Fun times. It was nice having a house full of young people.

Ice is super scary to drive on. Used to get it in Pittsburgh all the time. Hated it. Both for walking and driving!
