Yesterday, my badge got keyed to go into Mission Control. (Not that I have any reason to go there.. yet..) This is very exciting for me. They gave me a key to Mission Control. A little part of me thinkg, "What? Are they crazy?" and finds it so funny that this type of stuff is mundane here. Anyway, for me this is a pretty cool thing. When I worked down at KSC in Florida, I didn't get a key for anything, only temporary authorizations, 'must be escorted at all times' kind of passes. I guess the awe and mystery thing hasn't left me yet. :)

Other than that, yesterday was a normal, productive day (one more day without a cell phone, how sad). That's about that.

And since I haven't posted song lyrics here in a while, my tribute to Texas is this Dixie Chicks song, Wide Open Spaces (since it seems like the country music channels are the only ones with halfway decent music in the mornings).

Who Doesn't Know What I'm Talking About

Who's Never Left Home, Who's Never Struck Out

To Find A Dream And A Life Of Their Own

A Place In The Clouds, A Foundation Of Stone

Repeat Chorus

She Knows The High Stakes

She Knows The High Stakes

She Knows The High Stakes

She Knows The High Stakes
