- When all the lights are out, it gets blitch dark.
- An octopus has eight technicals.
...and...
- At her school's Science Share event, Miri got rave reviews from several people in a row after giving them detailed explanations of her experiment & its outcome. When Mom (who already knew the experiment well) decided to find out what her granddaughter was doing to get such accolades, Miri's response was, "Oh, Grandma, you can just read the signs on the display!"
(Can you tell someone didn't want to be standing in front of a display board while other kids were carousing all over the gym?)
Anyway, there will be more posting shortly-ish. Really, there will. I mean it. <sigh>

Okay, just to show how weird life is lately... I posted the above message and sat down with my laptop at the dining room table to work on my course. I have the drapes open so the sun comes in through the big sliding glass door just a few feet to my left, and it's nice to periodically watch all the livestock out there (jays, cardinals, robins,sparrows, squirrels, sometimes deer). I caught some close-in motion out of the corner of my eye and turned to see a large, healthy-looking rabbit right up against the glass, looking directly at me. After a moment, it slowly gave the room a once-over (left to right, right to left, up and down, then left to right one more time), then looked directly at me with what can only be described as disdain and then slowly turned and ambled away.
My housekeeping has been rejected by a bunny. Maybe I should go get my vacuum cleaner...?
