Conserative Morality wrote:"It's not time yet" is a tactic used by reactionaries in every era. "It's not time for democracy, it's not time for capitalism, it's not time for emancipation." Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.

I know that GVH has gone out with his family today so if he doesn't show up by about quarter to, I'll send out invites.

I think I love you just a little bit. I was about to ask if you could do that. I'm home but need to eat dinner, so not going to be there by quarter to.

If I join, it will be very short... 3 birthday celebrations, 1 parents/school meeting, an optician visit, a hunt for ear gear, internship for eldest child and a "epic battle " for taxi transport for said child to/ from school AND internship have me knackered. And this was only 1 week scheduled. Next week will be busier.
