"No sugar for you, you just get more awful." - Lucille Bluth

I am avoiding sugary foods today in prep for my glucose test later this afternoon, and all I really want from life right now is a warm cinnamon roll. I blame you, movies-michelle!

SO. A distraction. Last seen on shipperx's journal:

I love The Monster At The End of This Book SO MUCH.

Also how on earth is it being so stupid hot out counted as winning at summer? Look up your definitions, winning shouldn't need an advisory.

It is one of the greatest books ever. True fact.

Yeah, see, I'm coming from the angle of someone who really likes the occasional heat wave (because 'heat wave' in Seattle is also different than 'heat wave' in San Diego), so my definitions of winning are off from everybody else's up here. Hee.

Sal, there is always space for you to take up in my journal! *hugs*

stories about dogs or stories contrived to include as many reasons as possible for characters to get nekkid

That sounds about right. I started on my Heinlein kick in 7th grade. It was all downhill from there.

I think Watership Down the book is better than the movie (and I like the movie), but, yes, the movie is FREAKY. That movie traumatized me, even though I knew the story going in. Aieee.

Thank you for the entertainment! Hee.

Ok, I couldn't even make it through the ABC story on child safety products. I am a paediatric nurse and those items were some of the stupidist things I have ever seen. Yes, safety is important: at work I am inundated with policies, paperwork and devices I am mandated to use within my practice, and NONE of it actually works well. That wristlet leash is a choking/hanging hazard, for cripes sake!

Falling down and smacking your bum on the ground is evolutionary incentive to learn how to walk, dang it. If you separate the effect from the cause, these kids won't learn anything, Darwinianly speaking.

I don't know if Darwinianly is a word but it sounds like it should be :)

We're at 92 today down in PDX. I adore it - growing up in AZ means this barely feels warm, but M, who is very nearly Canadian, has wilted into a puddle of unhappy.

Both Watership Down and Julie of the Wolves are among my childhood favorites. I have a random fondness for books staring animals, it seems.

Oh man, the change from AZ to WA must have been intense. It was weird enough going from SoCal to WA!

I love books starring animals. Animals FTW!
