Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
t, my friend called from NO on Christmas to tell me it was snowing (I heard from a cousin that Houston got some too) and I thought of you and Dana.
It was surreal. Ice. Falling from the sky. In New Orleans. First time there's been snow in 15 years, and first time on Christmas Day in nearly 50.

Hee. We had unsticking, but falling, light snow in Birmingham. It was warmer in Baltimore than Birm for most of the time I was there.
My SIL's poor parents were driving down from Ohio in the midst of the storm. They detoured to avoid the worst. Through Virginia and Georgia.
Freaky weather.
Frank, if you have a dog or a cat, then you are not immune to the world of malicious urination or malicious vomitation.
Or malicious pooping.
We had a cat who did that whenever we returned from a trip.
My head needs to stop hurting.
Walking into my apartment after five days away, with my cat-hating parents along was....exciting. Cat-hating may be too strong, but they definitely don't like them. My dad said my cat was "needy." I tried to explain that no, that's just friendly.
Cute kid, sara!
I completely sympathize on the waterbed, since my news is that I STILL do not have electricity in part of my house.
This AM landlady's husband and father came over and tried all the same things that I had tried last night, before deciding (at noon) to call an electrician. I REALLY hope that I have power before new years!
Dear lord, Sophia -- that's horrible! Do you have heat? Are you at work? (Sad when going to work sounds like a good plan.) Oh wait -- it's not out in the whole house? That's something, but STILL.
Oh wait -- it's not out in the whole house?
No-- I am actually very lucky, because my kitchen and the furnace (and the whole downstairs apartment ) have electricity-- my living room, bedroom and bathroom do not.
I am just annoyed because of the "you're a girl, so I need to come and check whether or not the circuit breakers have flipped myself, even though you say they have." I imagine there is some sort of serious problem with wiring, as the house is from the turn of the century. I was actually up all night worrying that the house would burn down because of faulty wiring.

Yeah, that's cute. Not. Stupid people.
I got a little bit of that when I had the gas leak.
Um, hello? I make it my business to know what sort of smells could blow me up, you know?
That's all very annoying, Sophia.
Jesse, thanks. I think he is pretty nifty. It's funny, to those who knew my brother when he was little, he looks nearly identical to him. However, to those who knew my SIL? Identical to her. I've seen both their baby pictures, and it is true. My bro & SIL looked a lot alike.
Of course, when we were out at Target, a cashier thought I was Dominic's mother, J was my husband and my SIL was his sister. It was a little freaky. I think we scared the cashier with our horrified looks.
