Stayed up way to late last night in There. The wife was stretching her wings socializing and I wanted to encourage that.

Lots of people at meditation last night. Good questions and discussion. I was afraid we were going to hit the euthenasia question again, which is always hairy and emotional, but instead it was the bug question. *whew* After everyone cleared out the wife and I got a question, which had been bothering us, answered to our satisfaction. It seems there are some practices in Therevada which are holdovers from past superstitious habits, but Bhante assured us we don't need to be concerned with practicing those bits if we don't want to.

I guess that's it for now.

Man, haven't been here in a while. Let's see... Been staying up late playing Port Royale, which hits all my freelance-trading buttons. Also playing Tron 2.0, which absolutely rocks. It's like being in the movie, which is what we all dream of. Also got a new zabuton from California Morning Designs. It's really comfy. I recommend their products; I have their zafu as well. Um, that's about it. I haven't been in There much with them being down so often and all.
