"There aren't three but four dimensions to battle:  length, breadth, height, plus time." The Hard Way by Lee Childs

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

Youngest got a fortune cookies this weekend. Told him he may have accidentally grabbed the one intended for me, and asked if he would share his fortune with me.  The fortune cookie read, failure isn't defeat until you stop trying. Maybe I just needed someone else to say it out loud.
