Gronklies. Still trying to get caught up again (I'm 600+ behind in bitches and counting).
All in all, the move was one of the least traumatic. The annoyance of it taking so long (in terms of days) was more than offset by the lack of stress.
Still shaking things out in the new place. I feel weird there - my last move was studio apt. to studio apt., and prior to that had been dorms or roomate situations, so having more than enough space to myself for the first time in, like, 20 years is a little freaky.
Lyra, when I had axle issues in my old car, they told me that it would make very noticeable noises before reaching the point where the car would be undriveable. Like, loud enough that there was no way to ignore or miss them. Caveat: I don't know enough about axles to know if you have the same issues I had.
Woo-hoo! Broke 100 in today's fastest NYTimes X-word puzzle on-line solvers.

I think it might make a difference if the car is front or rear drive, and if it's the front or rear axle.
That's all I got. I had a rear-drive car that had rear axle noise but I got rid of the car before I had to deal with it.
ita should get her hands on the end of today's Ellen. I realize I watch too much TV.
Happy Birthday Lysana!
Happy Belated Birthday Laura!
I'm not sure I like the signs for what sort of day this will be, what with the police stopping highway traffic on my route to work for downed power line repair and the semi in front of me having a blowout soon after.
Cindy, born in Williamstown (or, okay, born in North Adams, because that was the nearest hospital back in the day).
If I knew that, I'd forgotten it. You should have stayed, darn it. I am very covetous of all the people who lived here at one point, but left before I could know them.
Lysana, are your 1st 14 years of area codes from Mass.? It was probably 617 or 413, if so.
Happy Birthdays to Lysana and Laura. Happy anniversary to kat p and her DH.

Gilmore Girls:
I liked Marty a while back when he looked like he was gonna be all "I don't count as a romantic prospect? Screw you" but he kinda wimped out on that. Logan's way better for the wild oat sowing that Rory so desperately needs to be doing.
