What is even happening?
A beer flood?
Boston once had a molasses flood.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Will the dress be salvagable when inevitabley someone drinking something with cranberry spills it all over you? The answer to this might be the answer as to whether or not you should wear the smitten-y white.
It's not a material that would be hard to get that out of, but the spillage usually happens about 10 minutes into me being there. One year I had on cute little olive shorts and an off-white crochet top. 15 minutes in, I got beer dumped all over me. I did run home and change.
Actually, I think I won't wear the white dress, because I'm remembering something in the invites about waterguns.
Drugs, doxies, doggy style, delirium, D-cups, dandyism...
Yup, exactly!

How does one have a flash flood without, you know, water?
In LA? Liquid smog.

Haven't seen it recently enough to know for sure, though.

That sounds right, Plei.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
How does one have a flash flood without, you know, water?
It's still a watch, not a warning. They're concerned about slow-moving thunderstorms in the San Gabriel mountains.

TROPICAL MOISTURE FROM THE REMNANTS OF HURRICANE EMILY WILL LINGER OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE REGION TODAY...BRINGING THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN. THESE SLOW MOVING STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PUT DOWN SEVERAL INCHES OF RAIN IN A SMALL AREAS THAT MAY RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING. THE MOST VULNERABLE AREAS WILL BE THE MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT VALLEYS AND DESERT...ESPECIALLY THOSE AREAS THAT HAVE RECENTLY BURNED.

Well, I've come to the conclusion that while kulebyaka was an interesting dish to try in the Russian restaurant last night, it really doesn't look very appetizing as a reheated leftover. Particularly since in my kitchen's brighter natural lighting I can see that the salmon is gray and there's apparently no spinach in the pastry. It's like discolored bread pudding except made with questionable fish rather than flour.
On the other hand, the local tapas bar has fresh figs from the chef's own tree this weekend and is serving them with very tasty Cabrales cheese from Spain. I never eat twice at the same restaurant in a given week, but I think I'm going to break that rule to take advantage of the fig-havingness.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Boston once had a molasses flood.
They keep saying that, but I refuse to believe it until they make a movie of it.
I'm not sure if a made-for-TV movie will count.

Tonight's dinner is apple slices with peanut butter. And cherries. It's actually been comfortable this weekend; the humidity dropped dramatically, but I think the residuals of last week are finally catching up to me. Very not hungry. But not eating leads to crankiness and crying over the radio. So...preschool snacking.
I think I've kicked the dress's ass. It's not perfect, but imperfections can be hidden. Still have to sew up the lining, but that must be done by hand.
Read & finished Alvarez's Before We Were Free last night which had me randomly re-reading passages from In the Time of Butterflies which started me onto hysterics (um, not the good kind). That book kills me every time. So then I picked up Masha Hamilton (funny, I know her from being a source on so many books on russian politics) novel on journalists The Distance Between Us which was all kinds of other potentially disturbing. So it was a really fun night and I had really fucked up dreams.
I need to repot one of my flower tubs, but I don't feel like walking to Home Depot. The heat killed the violas and snapdragons. Verbena is going nuts, though.
