I'm seeing a lot of fake snow around the dancers' feet. *squirm* someone please tell me that those professional dancers are performing on a smooth, solid surface with no loose debris on which to slip? Please? *twitch*

I only caught about 90 seconds of the opening ceremonies, on my way to bed, but I wouldn't be surprised if I enjoyed them more vicariously here. I'm running around with Boskone, the local SFF convention this weekend, so I'm not going to catch much anyway...

Which makes Kiefer the Nephew of universal health care!
Grandson.
His mother is a great advocate of her father's legacy, and she and Keifer have done cmapaigns and speeches to support universal health care when there's been talk of moving to a two-level system.

Anthem's not totally inappropriate.
I thought about Anthem, but
Ah the wars they will
be fought again
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold
and bought again
the dove is never free.
seemed to disqualify it, at least for the people who pay attention to the words. Anthem would have been a way better choice for many of Hallelujah montages I've seen.
The spokesperson for the Georgia Department of Transportation just described the interstates as a version of bumper cars.

The hydraulics had a malfunction, and they were stuck underground for a while and one failed to come up at all.

Ah. OK, now I am headed to the farmer's market with my neighbors!

I should have had sara's morning motivation. As it is, I slept in and the painter came by to go over things and I was still in my pjs, oh well. I have started the great pre-vacation clearing out of the refrigerator. We had bacon and eggs this morning. Used up almost all the bread, saved just enough to make sandwiches for the plane. And I grated up the last of two chunks of cheese: part for my eggs, the rest for my salad at lunch. I found three things to toss out and have put a few things into the freezer.
Now on to packing. We are only taking a backpack each, so this could get interesting.

We stopped at the hardware store and I got spare keys made. To give to my neighbors in case I lock myself out (I've been regaled with several lock out stories.) One'll go to the stay-at-home mom.
Couple are coming over for coffee in a minute. Only fair since I've seen the inside of everyone elses'!
Learned that this place was essentially unlocked for the better part of a year! They used to come by and set out bug and mice traps!
