A Random Post

1. I was talking to a Maryland native the other day, and when he asked me where I had lived, I went, "Oh, Exit X off Interstate... uhhh, ...what's that called...", till he prompted, "695?" I am appalled! How is that possible? I'll be willing to live in Chicago next, at this rate. And, by the way, this is coming right on top of the loss of my driver's license (issued by the State of Maryland) - I haven't seen it since I traveled back last from NY and I believe I lost it at the airport on the way back. Boohoo.

2. I've never really doubted this seriously, even in the hurricane days of my teenage; but now I'm absolutely sure of it: My mother is always, always right. This refers to the little piece of advice she gave me two weeks ago, on her birthday, to be precise; along with her view of "the case" I presented to her. But, even in general, Mom's always right.

3. I miss Fi, but I believe he's balancing wonderfully between 'our' world and his, so I'm still okay - and too busy to worry about anything, even if there was anything to worry about. Today's Day 14, we've got 22 more to go.

Okay, when I started off, I had one big thing more, but I've created some limitations on this blog - one of which is, never to talk about my lab and associated people in more detail than I can help. Which means that I've automatically cut down the length of this post to about a tenth of what it was supposed to be. I'm still tempted to write but I do have to think of the repercussions of the 'wrong' people getting hold of this, so I'll keep my silence for the nonce. Anyway, it's bedtime.
