Today was the day

I'm sorry I haven't been here squeeing about space stuff. But you know it's been awesome. Chris Hadfield went up to the ISS before Christmas as a regular Canadian astronaut, and came down a couple of weeks ago as a global superstar. And now, Karen Nyberg and Luca Parmitano are up there, and seem to be settling into life in space.

I wasn't looking forward to today I must admit, but it did go really well. Now I'm 40 I think some people assume I'm too old to have children, so I don't get questioned about it. Which suits me just fine.
