Happy Birthday Jen!
Happy Birthday Meara!
So far, it looks like NO is missing the worst-case scenario. What a relief. Poor Biloxi, though.
Any word from the Empress? Or is she in lock-up because police had to break up the Bride's Maids Brawl of Ought-Five?
Happy birthday, Jen and Meara.
Just had a battle of wills with my cat about not playing with computer parts. Very stupid.

I AM NOT IN JAIL! I am typing up more and will post in a bit. All in all, it wasn't as bad as it could be and I actually had a good time. Mostly.
whee, glad you had a good time, Aimee. Also glad that you are not in jail.

Heh. I use the scroll bar as I'm reading. When your name appeared at the bottom of my screen, my first thought was, "Well, at least she's not in jail!" I'm glad it sounds like it was at least decent, and that it's over for you, Aimee.
Hivemind question: So I woke up yesterday with a small, flat red bite-type thing on the inside of my arm, about the diameter of a pencil's eraser. It had a darker red dot inside it, but it didn't itch, wasn't raised, and I decided to ignore it. By last night, it had raised, was itchy, and is now somewhere between the diameter of a quarter and a half dollar. It hurts a little bit if I push on it. Any clue what it could be?
It can't be a tic -- I wasn't outside at all that day, except for in the car, and it's not in a place where I wouldn't have noticed a tic burrowing in. Spider bite, you think? Can I ignore it, or just put some caladryl lotion on it and *then* ignore it?

Well, that's good news.

If it feels warmer than the surrounding ok skin, prolly spider bite.

I am tick shy right now, because of Scott's Lyme Disease (which the Dr.'s office confirmed this morning), but that said, I've seen ticks get inside houses, before, and not just houses with pets. We have no idea where/when/why/how Scott got his tick bite.
That said, it sounds like it could be either a spider bite, or a reaction to a moquito bite. Do you have a doctor in your new area, yet? If not, can you call your old doctor? /gunshy
Well, I'm glad NOLA looks mostly okay, but now I'm worried for Biloxi/Gulfport. That's even closer to home for me, and I definitely have friends there, and friends with family there.
The reports on NOLA look really mixed (at least they do through my Buffista filter). It was spared the huge storm that was expected last night, but there seems to be significant flooding and damage in some areas, and I can't quite make out if the time of the storm surge has passed, or is yet to come.
