We'll remember things we're doing

The last day of bunny_hugger's visit would be a short one, between our natural tendency to rise late and the need to be at the airport before her scheduled flight back, which it would turn out was not overbooked (but which would leave late).

( We closed with the important things. Diner food, Dalek talk, ridiculing the thing which calls itself a newspaper, that sort of thing.  )

So I waited, getting up now and then to watch the departures monitor, checking my phone for any text messages, until I was certain she'd started the flight home. After that, I drove home without incident to wait online for news that she'd arrived safely, which she had. The year was off to another good start.

Trivia: Michael Lanyard, ``The Lone Wolf'', was a detective created by Louis Joseph Vance in a 1914 novel, and was eventually adapted to TV. Source: The Trivia Encyclopedia, Fred L Worth. (Also radio, which Worth seems to overlook.)

(in talking about the popularization of the --- incorrect --- notion that men with an extra Y chromosome were more likely to be violent criminals than those with the normal chromosome pair): By the early 1970s, there had been at least two `thriller' films in which the main character is a violent criminal driven by a chromosome abnormality, a series of crime novels with an XYY hero (who constantly wrestles with his inner compulsion to commit crimes), and as a spin-off from the novels, a TV series called ``The XYY Man''. Ah, popular culture, you've done it again, somehow, and for some reason.
