I'd like to gently prod anyone from outside the U.S. to take a look at the questions
eor asked, as I'm curious about the answers. :) (When I asked why he came up with them he said "just ongoing research," so I guess you don't have to worry about us crashing on your couch any time really soon. ;))
I woke up thinking "Wednesday. The day after Tuesday. Like sands through the hourglass, so go the days of our lives." That was the old beginning of the soap opera, "Days Of Our Lives," and it occurred to me to wonder why they would choose such an intro for a soap. Here's a show that's all about the abnormal, trying to show people having exciting lives, and yet they chose a phrase which clicks so with the greyness of normality. And then I got out to the kitchen and saw that the fog which had us socked in all early morning yesterday, and came back in the evening, is still here. Ah, lovely greyness! I want to go out for a walk! It's getting lighter by the moment, so I'd best move along. :)
