Oh my gahhhh! That’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!
It’s a trick.
That’s actually a giant dime and the frog could eat you in a single gulp!

I hope the French restaurant down the road charges by the kilo and not per frog! Because I'm really hungry!

Quest: Sail to the island of Undvik and search for Hjalmar
I saw no dotted line leading me to a ship I could board to sail. Therefore, I jumped into the sea and started swimming.

They've taken down all the high swings in parks and replaced them with low ones that only kids can use.
What about me, it isn't fair!

As I get older, though I no longer organize my thinking along Taoist lines, I realize that my embracing Taoism when I was younger has yielded significant benefits. I'm much more open and accepting of differences than I suspect I would have been otherwise. And though I only notice it in hindsight, my whole approach to the world and learning is organized along Taoist lines, even though I don't consider myself a practicing Taoist.

I had my own assignment at work last night. I felt a little overwhelmed at first, but then I pushed myself to do what needed to be done. At least now I know I can handle it.
Now to enjoy my weekend off.

The NFL channel has been airing non-stop installments about training camp lately, and no rebroadcasts of football games. I realize they have to stretch their content any way they know how, given that it's a little bit overblown to have 24/7 coverage of football, but I miss watching actual football. I could give a rat's ass what happens in training camp, especially when it's not my team!
