They are still beautiful even when burned. 

Slow progress with the book. I love it though. I guess just don't want to finish it fast.

"So when I blew that flight and nearly got a re-ride, I was forced to look inside myself to try to figure out why I hadn’t been ready. Was I tired? Hungover? Not assertive enough at the controls? Too focused on the wrong things? No. The problem was simple: I’d decided I was already a pretty good pilot, good enough that I didn’t need to fret over every last detail. And it’s true, you don’t need to obsess over details if you’re willing to roll the dice and accept whatever happens. But if you’re striving for excellence—whether it’s in playing the guitar or flying a jet—there’s no such thing as over-preparation. It’s your best chance of improving your odds. In my next line of work, it wasn’t even optional. An astronaut who doesn’t sweat the small stuff is a dead astronaut."

Brokastīs kārtīga rupjmaizes šķēle ar sviestu, tikko no pannas noņemta cepta ola un tomāti ar baziliku. Perfekti.

Pirmā čupiņa piparmētru tēja labi izžuva pirtī. Noglabāju stikla burkā. Jāsagādā tik lins, ar ko nosiet, lai tēja var elpot. Saplūcu vēl. Noskaloju sietā, nosusināju katru lapiņu un izliku žāvēties. 

Tikmēr kumelītes krietni saņēmušās. Nākamajā nedēļas nogalē jau iespējams būs ziediņi. 


Saskumu grāmatā pie Columbia nelaimes. Visām būt stiprām astronautu sievām visās iespējamās nozīmēs.

Sēžot korķī autobusā un tad uz soliņa gaidot mammu un Šamēju, ielasījos An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield. Fascinating!

Last day of January. See you next year! February, you are welcome!

Almost done with Predictably Irrational. What's up next?  I've heard great things about Stranger in a strange land by Robert A. Heinlein.
