    Haha - this movie is based off of one of my husband's favorite books.  Yeah, no kidding.

    We just got done biking 16 miles - same trail I did last week.  Next time (probably next week), we'll head the other way, towards campus. 

    Came home, showered, and then he tried to run down the stairs to the basement.  He almost fell down, poor boy!  He was a lot more boisterous on the bike was.  I prefer a steady pace but he was all over the place.  This is part of why he's more fit than I am   But he forgot that he can't fly down stairs!

    Tonight I'll see how much time I can waste on this machine, read a bit, maybe have a late dinner, and convince the boy to watch the second half of Rebecca.  Mm, the marmalade.

    Are you getting 'The Golden Compass' on your movie thing?  Let me know.  Garden shopping and possibly a $5 sub?!?

    @travelerblue - 

    I just moved The Golden Compass to the top of my queue. So I can bring it over sometime next week when it comes in if you're interested in seeing it. I haven't read the books yet, but I don't mind watching this one first.

    Hah! Yay for Rebecca! I did enjoy it, I think it's like a good Agatha Christie in a lot of ways. Yay for biking, too!

    100 eProps!
    Rebecca is like a good Agatha C ^ good call.

    I cannot fly down stair either. No fair.

    Hey, i read the paper and have been thinking about it. It is provocative and well done Emily! The concepts of those dichotomies were bouncing around my head for a while. They still are. Merci for letting us read it!

    Heh...I've flown down stairs too...the trick is aiming for the ground, and missing.
    Exercise can be fun...yeah.

    I love dreaming about flying, but even in dreams, I'm somewhat afraid of heights. I like airplanes; I just don't like the combo of heights and being out in the open/agoraphobia. Ha! Anyway, in my dreams, I sometimes float down stairs or do moonrunning or jumping, moving around with less gravity. Also, I liked to float around Case's main quad one to ten feet off the ground. Sometimes I would fly as high as the roofs of the buildings, but that was harder. And never Olin

    @tlm0000 - 

    Thank you!

    @jassmine - 

    I tend to temper my biking with ice cream. Today I had ice cream but I did not snack between meals or eat particularly poorly otherwise. Steve is committed to making some changes in his health and habits soon, and I know it's going to be wonderful for both of us.
