YAY for tblog tech!!  (and boo for other unmentioneds).  while I haven't mastered the 'e-mail your update' thing, at least they got back to me the same day about it!  And it was a real person who wrote- unless the automated system does a realistic, personal-sounding job.  So that's good news.  Also, everyone seems to be in love with Toki, my new lizard friend from Natala and Matt from 10 Thousand Villages.  Grown adults actually pet him.  'Toki' means a 'time of opportunity' in Japanese.  He'll sleep in a drawer at night, lest he be kidnapped and because lizards like dark places, right?

It feels like Wisconsin today.  It's wet and breezy and cool.  What a nice break from the heat!!

my random thought: "If you're not a sprinter, does that make you a long-distance runner?"  This was thought as I was hurrying back to work, running a little late from lunch.  I was thinking of more than endurance and strength and speed- I was also thinking of what type of life-athletes we are.

I seem to be in some type of flow/wave lately, and that's pretty cool.  I may be washed up on shore soon, or may be pulled out by a strong current, but in the meantime, it's nice to kind of be OK with how thigs are going and in a way anticipate what's happening.  Not that I know it all, but I'm freaking out less and having more 'deja vu' experiences lately.

Hurray!!  I may be able to sleep in an extra 20 minutes if I take a different route to work (I did this morning ).  And that 20 minutes can make a big difference .
