My pie is baking. That means that it's time for silly. Since I don't get to eat the pie until tomorrow.

I think I may go to the Big Island Rendezvous on Friday evening so I don't have to drive down on Saturday. [livejournal.com profile] tmancer, if you have room, could I share your tent with you on Friday night?

Then Sunday is Canadian Thanksgiving! w00t!

Mmm... Pie...

Also, you (in MN) should all go see In the Shadow of the Moon at the Lagoon. It's a documentary about the Apollo program, with lots of really fantastic footage that you probably haven't seen before, and lots of interviews with Apollo astronauts. Michael Collins in particular is a laugh riot. It ends this Thursday (today, for most of you reading this), and you should drop whatever stupid Thursday plans you had and go see this instead. Face it- a Saturn V rocket just doesn't have the same effect if you watch it on your TV. And! World Space Week begins tomorrow, the 50th anniversary of the launch of Sputnik. 50 fucking years. It's no wonder nobody seems to care anymore.

Seriously. It's a really amazing thing, space exploration. Go remind yourself of that. It is reassuring to see the awesome things that a bunch of monkeys can do, in the midst of everything less noble.

the hedge abides.
