Today's Advent Item is a Factoid.
Did you know that Jupiter (pictured above behind the moon Io) has more than 2.5 times the mass of all the other planets combined?
I did.
I am seriously loving this Advent thing. Ed's quote of the week came last night, when we opened Mom's gift of a really cute Advent Calendar and I was inordinately excited. A: Now we can count down the days!!!! E: [looks at his atheist girlfriend in bemused shock] ...until the coming of Our Lord?
It must be genetic, or else a conditioned response. I too am inordinately excited by all things of the advent variety. I think it's the suspense of the one door a day thing.
I'm a gelato-eating, dog-liking, violin-playing, camera-toting, newspaper-editing kind of girl. I dream in Technicolor, claymation, and under water. I live for chocolate, and hate mushy fruit.
