rigel recently posted a video about which she said:

"It's not a complicated thing, really. It's simple, brilliant, and full of joy. And from the looks of it, it brought joy to a whole bunch of other people. I watched it, entertained at first. Entertainment gave away to outright delighted laughter . . . and then to tears. Yeah, it was that good for me."

She is so right, and it made me cry too (in a good way) as it went on and on and on. To repeat my mantra: people can be awesome. Thanks so much for showing me this, it really made my day.

It's a bit wide for embedding, so go here to view it. And then dance a little. =:)


A bit of trivia: it was sponsored by a chewing gum company. I don't chew gum, but if I ever see that brand in the store, I'd be tempted to get a pack anyway to thank them for taking a chance on something this wacky and not tackily turning it into an overt ad.

In other news: Packing this weekend. Big life change. Eep. I just have to keep reminding myself that, all things considered, this transition is so much better than it could have been, and will ultimately be a positive and appropriate course-correction in my life. Still, big life change. Eep.

I already moved in one of your new roommates. Let me know if you need a hand as well- I should have the Subaru.

Thanks, I've got a rental with uhaul scheduled, but having a backup still reduces the stress a lot. Much appreciated!

The Demilitarized Zone! Awesome!

Man, moving sucks even when it isn't part of a bigger life change (although many of mine have been, thinking back on it), so you have my sympathy. Best wishes on the move, and the next chapter of your life.
Also, why the hell does your LiveJournal break my Firefox? It works fine in IE, but when I try to comment in your journal, Firefox logs me out. It's bizarre.

Another big life change? Haven't you already done enough of those?

What are you on to this time?

Since I've just this last week gone through big-move-from-big-life-change, happy thoughts at you. It's complicated even when it's the right decision.

Duuuuuuude. Wow, that was an Epic Moment. ...and yet, I feel dirty now.

Tried emailing you at the last address I have. Or I'll call later.
