Sorry this isn't really a post, but this weekend is devoted to Indy's Fringe Festival and more freakin' planning. I just want to ask if anyone else is having problems with their "favorites"? I noticed a few insomniac nights ago that I couldn't edit my favorite SGs because the page wouldn't load completely no matter how many times I tried. Several days later, still won't load and I can't even get to my favorite pictures to look at them!

Um, and just because I'm wasting your time today - another Love Letters to the Universe quote :

After all, mind is such an odd predicament for matter to get into. I often marvel how something like hydrogen, the simplest atom, forged in some early chaos of the universe, could lead to us and the gorgeous fever we call consciousness. If a mind is just a few pounds of blood, dream, and electric, how does it manage to contemplate itself, worry about its soul, do time-and-motion studies, admire the shy hooves of a goat, know that it will die, enjoy all the grand and lesser mayhems of the heart? How do you begin with hydrogen and end up with prom dresses, jealousy, and chamber music?

Haha, yeah, I do actually read all the comments... I read page 32 last, and I'm going to catch up next time I have a lull at work. I usually read all the comments for the first few days a set is up, and then anything after that gets read if I'm ever REALLY bored and it occurs to me.

Some of the context was definitely lost due to the medium, but it was the only way to get the message out to so many people at once... so quantity over quality, I guess, but from the response, it seems that it's made a lot of people think, which was my goal.

I hadn't noticed though if yours was goofed-up I am sure mine was too. I love the letter. It's an incredibly-timed reminder of the marvel of existence, just when I needed it. thanks.
