Hearts of Stars

March 10, 2008

I have a rock garden. Last week three of them died.

I was reading StarDate this morning, and found this little tidbit about gold:

…the gold in your wedding ring — and all the other gold on Earth — was born in the hearts of dying stars, and flung into the galaxy when they exploded.

I’m not sure if that’s romantic, depressing, or just another fact of life.

In the rest of my news, I am still sick. I am trying to get better, and while I am feeling better I am not sure if this is a cold that will go away on its own. So I will be considering whether or not to see the doctor about this. We shall see.
