As for travel, I generally find the trip more fun than the destination, but that's only because I don't fly anymore, and I love seeing the sights on a 2000-mile road trip. I mean, seriously - Carhenge (Alliance, Nebraska), a Frank Lloyd Wright prairie house (Topeka, Kansas), Devil's Tower (Wyoming), Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, Deadwood (South Dakota), Royal Gorge, Littleton and Durango (Colorado), a lovely WPA-built municipal park and bandstand (Arapahoe, Nebraska), Taos and Albuquerque (New Mexico - you've never seen colors like you'll see outside ABQ at sunrise, I promise), Moab and Arches National Park (Utah) - all in ten days, while never spending a night indoors?

Hell freaking yes. I'm in.

Good to see you back on the board, Kwicko.

This is for you.

Hopefully better. Our thoughts are with you and her, DT, in hopes of a good outcome.

Thanks, CTS! My li'l Jeepie doesn't care for gunfire, so I keep the guns away from her. She DOES enjoy a fast drive in the CRX, however - she leans into the turns, braces herself against me, and she gets quite impatient at traffic lights.

But how'd you get plates? I mean, you're not wrong, and that's the shocker.

Somethin' you said in a thread a few years ago, and it just happened ta stick in my head, probably because I took 4 years of ceramics, and because it was a fairly unexpected thing to come from "The angriest cat on teh internets."

I'm rarely suprised by people, and that did...

I'm glad you're doing better. I had pneumonia last year. Not!! fun. Most of the people in my family have never had it, and think of it like a bad cold. Some things just don't translate...

I didn't want to say it while Quicko was so sick but pneumonia can be really dangerous, its worse than just a bad cold, as Wish said. I'm glad you're doing better Quicko, more rest and you'll be back to your old self.

I like ceramics. I haven't had a chance to do much of it recently though.

I tried making things out of clay when I was a little girl and sucked at it. I was good at drawing, surprisingly, when I was a girl but once I hit about 18 I stopped doing it, it didn't seem so fun anymore. I'm probably pretty bad at it now, cudos to those who can still do it well. That was the only type of art I was ever good at, I've never been good at painting, I can't sew etc.

Riona, Mike,

She's doing better, thanks. She's feeling yurgy, she's in the hospital they're going to run some more tests. Then there's going to be a general meeting of the doctors on Wednesday.
