Off the List

So… I finally made my decision. After many years of planning, training, grooming and dreaming of becoming an astronaut thinking how cool it’d be to walk on the moon, I have decided I will not take any further steps toward realizing my dream of becoming an astronaut.

Why? Why? Why, such a dramatic turn of events? How could I give up so soon? I am only 35! I am merely a spring chick in the pond of space academia!

Well, if you must know… I finally became the proud owner of black, knee-high leather boots, that’s why. I wore them last night and neglected to bring a wire coat hanger to scratch recurrent ankle itches. Heretofore, thither, and so forth - no astronaut suits for me. No. Thank. You. The closest I’ll be getting to moon walkin’ is when I crank Billie Jean on the stereo.

*rattle, rattle*… I know that one white glove is in here somewhere…

    Kerry, Kerry, Kerry - you suck us in blogging daily, then rip it away. waaaaaaa (whining). Totally understand, it’s that crazy time of year, who has time to blog. But I just know there is a ton of blog worthy things happening in your life. Did I hear of flooding in the Seattle area?
    Knowing you love music, I compel you to go see the movie August Rush, so you can give your special gift of word to this movie. It is a gift of a movie.
    Take care
