You guys definitely needed this weekend, msbelle! Yay, mac!
I knew there was a lot of Welsh in my family but I've maybe tracked it back to Llewellyn Fawr. Not sure how reliable ancestry.com is, though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have severly mixed feelings about dogs licking my feet.
Where do you let them lick you?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Darb just walked in to the room, licked my big toe three or four times, and walked back out.
Pets is weird. Kato licks his bed and/or the floor All. The. Time. This (from Hyperbole and a Half, genesis of Clean All The Things!) made me laugh until I cried, particularly the part about the dog licking the floor. Because that's Kato. (Also, we tried the dog biscuit trick [you'll see if you read it], and Chloe did it in about 20 seconds, while it took Kato probably 2 minutes. I was aghast.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ew, nowhere. Which may be why they resort to the feet.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
In my problems are small world: I got summoned for jury duty Wednesday. I had a moderately sized meltdown about it a couple of weeks ago when I heard, and then I basically dealt. But I still feel the same way about it. But I guess I`ve been covering well enough, because the day before, tomorrow, the SO scheduled not one but two recording sessions. We work together in the morning, then he teaches alone in the afternoon, then two sessions. So I will be alone in the house stewing about it all night.
I realize it will likely be no big deal. And I may not end up having to serve. But at a minimum it will be two hours on the road on a workday and a lot sitting around with People. And I have radical views about prisons, which I will either have to put on the record or ignore, and my brane just will not quit with the Responsibility Of It All. Sheesh, brain. So help a sister out, peeps, what should I expect?

I do not like dogs who lick. At all. Though I have one and I hate it.
msbelle, yay for a normalish weekend with mac! Progress rocks!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Not sure how reliable ancestry.com is, though.
About as reliable as Wikipedia, and for the same reasons.
It's a good starting point, though.

Liese, I've been called for jury duty 3 times since I've been in LA. I never get chosen because I have sort of extremist views. The last time I said something about how I was angry and not willing to be particularly fair because I'm tired of the extremely litigious nature of society.

In my experience with jury duty in several locations, you should mostly expect waiting around in a big room, and possibly in a court room. There's some possibility you'll be asked to answer questions the lawyers and judge would use to decide if you're suitable for their jury, and your views of prisons may or may not come into play. But I've only gotten that far (voir dire) twice out of four times I've been called. Someone I know got released after honestly saying she couldn't send anyone to prison for a drug crime because she thought the laws were unjust.
