Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

I wonder how many right-wingers think Obama approved that raid in Somalia just so it would take place during the State of the Union speech. It makes a nice juxtaposition of headlines. Though if Obama is scheduling things on purpose, if I were someone pissing off the US, I would keep track of when Obama has major speeches planned. Just in case.

I've learned, through karate, that I'm pretty flexible. At least when the fat doesn't get in my way.

I also get the need to repeat moves a bunch of times until muscle memory kicks in. My main issue is having trouble translating a move I've learned "right handed" to doing it left handed. It is like I'm learning something completely new.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If you fall into a black hole, your body will be stretched to several miles long before it disintegrates.

The gravitational forces at the event horizon make most yoga poses impractical.

Also, back on the salad discussion- I discovered why the new salads do not fill me up-- they are only 180 calories!!! (Weirdly, they are also not listed on the healthy list).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's definitely not a meal!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I need to give up on consciously processing the commands and learn them by moving in the pattern enough times that the non-verbal part of my mind picks it up.

I hear ya. My skating coach just this week told me to "stop thinking" and just do mohawk turns. He says my body now knows how to do them and my brain is just getting in the way and I have to ignore it.

Sophia, I think it may just be what your library purchases, though I don't know what you read. My library has lots, but it's often already checked out!

Lee, I believe that staying home would have been the smart option. . . if only I had realized before I left everything that I forgot.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Staying home is often the smart thing to do; it's rarely the possible or practical thing to do.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yep, so I'm laid up another day. I thought things were getting better last night, but I suspect I just tried to do to much and aggravated things further. I'm actually having more trouble walking today. I swear I'd go to the doctor if I could get across the room in less than 5 minutes.
