#1820

I don't really like any celebrities that much, tbh. The celebrities I'm most fond of are ones who have been married to the same person for a long time and somehow manage not to get into any scandals. I really like Michael Emerson for those reasons. And also because he told a story once of how he and his wife were going to an awards ceremony in a limo and they packed and ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in the limo because you have to wait so long to get your meal at those things.

You don't say. I cured my first salmon over the weekend, and used even less dill than the recipe called for, and it was awful. I had to chuck it.

Have you ever read A Wrinkle in Time, and if you have, what did you think of it?

Wrinkle in Time was one of the first books I read all by myself and it imprinted on me for life. I went on to read Ray Bradbury and then all the science fiction I could put my hands on. I totally loved it (and as an aside, the online HR database we used at work was called Tesseract). I count Wrinkle in Time as my most formative book.
