Well, at least Biloxi/Gulfport isn't below sea level - AFAIK.
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's right on the Gulf. IOW, not below sea level. But also not very far above.

Hey. New board.

True. The potential for total destruction isn't as large, which is why most of the coverage focused on NOLA.
I just hope the people that LIVED there realized that they still needed to get out.

Sounds like a spider bite. I guess if you get the target pattern around it, you'll know it was a tick after all.
Mal just laid down the law: Robert, for reasons best known to himself, launched into a really annoying Maroon 5 song, and Mallory, who'd been playing quietly next to us, came unglued! Bright red, roaring, stomping feet, tears.
Robert's still apologizing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
BWAHAHAHAHA!

Em fell out of our bed this morning. Big red lump on her head.
Raq, how's your babyfood making?

What is even happening?
Well, at least Biloxi/Gulfport isn't below sea level - AFAIK.If it is, it still isn't as low down as NOLA, which I read last night/this morning is second only to Death Valley in elevation (or lack thereof, I guess).
Oh, damn. Truth to tell, that's what made me question this, but I just can't imagine that I wouldn't have noticed a tick (which I just realized I was misspelling) on my arm, below my elbow. Hmmm.
For what it's worth, I don't think Scott's tick bite itched. He never did see the tick, though. It was right at the crease where the thigh meets the trunk--the groin area, I guess, but more front and center, than gooliewards. We did see the bump and the spreading redness.
Can you take antihistimines? If you're not inclined to call a doctor yet, I'd say take an antihistimine, and if you have any cortisone around, slather some on the bite, and see what happens. If it starts to look worse though, don't mess around, or I'll take all the cake.

Leif fell out of his bed Saturday. Lots of crying, but no bumps or lumps. I don't think he even remembers it happening.

Poor Em!
Baby food making, round one, went pretty well actually. It took longer to stew the fruits than I expected (and a bit more water), but all in all it was a success.
I fed Mallory some of the pears today, in fact, as The Troubles returned after a brief respite. He gummed a bite of them and gave me this look like, "Um, Mom, I don't know how to tell you this, but the rice has gone off."
Just heard from the friend who rode it out in NOLA. She's fine, and going home to check out the damage (she stayed in a hotel). She did clarify why I don't watch the news:
I heard some really moronic discussions on cable news yesterday,including an anchor and a reporter openly speculating if a group of dolphins transplanted from an outdoor animal park to a hotel swimming pool were breathing fresh or salt water in the pool.

Glad to hear it's going well. I have dried apricots and plums I need to stew. I might do that next Sunday - I've made Sunday my baby food making day. Last night I did:
lentils and carrots
corn and peas
peaches, pears, and bananas
blueberries, strawberries, bananas and mixed cereal.
Tonight I'm going to do mixed veggies (corn, carrots and peas) and turkey, noodles and green beans and plain green beans. I've discovered that putting some free range, organic, sodium free, half-caf, with a twist chicken broth in the veggies and dinners gives them a bit of a taste. Also a bit of onion.
