What do you most like about yourself?

Quote of the Day:
“I look up at the night sky, and I know that yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us. When I reflect on that fact, I look up – many people feel small, because they’re small and the Universe is big, but I feel big, because my atoms came from those stars.”
- Neil deGrasse Tyson

Absurdity Day
Beautiful Day

Thanks Bay dear one. I saw Hacksaw Ridge with Lucille last night in a crowded theater, which I don't like to do, but, the movie was so intense that nobody was interested in looking at their tiny screen . It's been a long time since I've been to a movie where everyone clapped at the end. This movie is not for the faint of heart. It's like American Sniper on steroids. I have to admit that I woke up with some of those disturbing images floating around in my brain this morning We're off to Wisconsin this afternoon for a buffet at Apple Holler and a trip to the North Face Outlet.
