Ten Days Later, Maybe I Can Trust me, Women's Liberation, Please Don't Do Cussing Stuff

So yeah, "New Year" and all. Big Gosh and Gully, huh?.......

So the start of a new month and among her people the tradition is to say "rabbits and hares" as the first thing you say on the first day of the month.

I peaked my head from under the covers. The fire was already going, the room was fairly warm. She said it to me: Rabbits and Hares. I whispered it back. So it was the first thing I said on the first day of the first month of an entirely different year from the year when I had learned of this tradition of her people.

Then later during coffee, I asked and discovered that she hadn't spoken since waking. She was dressed, the fire was warm, coffee was ready. That takes a while.

That was this morning.
This evening I realised that since the elemental symbol for iron is Fe, then Ironman is Female. Oh my gosh............
