Reactionary isn't always bad, unless someone moves in and lives there. Do things that make sense. |

It's not like moving to another planet. You'll still have the same house, same car, same phone number, you'll still be sitting in the same chair. It will just be different. And everytime I've ever said that to anyone, they seemed somewhere between totally relieved and shocked. . . . .

I was up to my elbows in batter and asked Simon and Linnaea if they could help.
