While I'm pleased we actually had a Mars rover successfully land, both dklegman and I are very disappointed that after landing, it wasn't jumped by the 'missing' Beagle 2 probe for a few rounds of space probe BattleBots in an attempt to draw out the hidden Martian population by the spectacle of gladitoral combat, gambling, and cheap booze.

I am The Hierophant The Hierophant often represents learning with experts or knowledgeable teachers. This card also stands for institutions and their values. The Hierophant is a symbol of the need to conform to rules or fixed situations. His appearance in a reading can show that you are struggling with a force that is not innovative, free-spirited or individual. Groups can be enriching or stifling, depending on circumstances. Sometimes we need to follow a program or embrace tradition, other times, we need to trust ourselves. For a full description of your card and other goodies, please visit LearnTarot.com

Meh. :D

Got clothes and stuff back from parents, which is good. Paying for driving with some headaches, but nothing severe. I must note that the weather is terrible. It's not quite cold enough to turn the downpour into snow, but cold enough to make it really horrid. Yuck.

OOof. Okay. Weights were good for me in terms of health, but 30 minutes while sick (even if recovering) is a totally different effort than when healthy. OTOH, it's a good sweat, and helps push the crap out of the system.

That said: time for an odd request. Anyone know a good place I could get some form of grip tape, like skate/snowboarders use for extra traction? The bare metal crossbars on the weights can be a little slippish after a lot of lifting, and I think this would help.

I'm copying this from flemco. If this angers you as much as it did me, I ask you to please re-post the link.

As others have mentioned, this is an election year. Think about who your vote is for, and what that person supports.

Foowf.

Started falling asleep on Lisa. *blush* She was wonderful, and told me to go rest. Got up, she'd left (presumably for bed?), and I got to chat with Noelle a bit before she went to bed.

And now? I'm going to bed.

See you all tomorrow.
