And "Piazza, New York Catcher" may be the prettiest song Stuart Murdoch ever wrote.
I think it's one of the prettiest songs anyone has ever wrote. It's a favorite of mine. The only problem today is that Piazza's on the DL.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
My parents just got on the road, headed to Jackson, MS.
I hate this. I would rather be there, in the middle of the freaking out, than here, and unable to do anything except worry.
My mother said she didn't know what to take, but she grabbed the family pictures. I have too many people to worry about. Aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Dana, good ~ma to you and yours! May everyone be all right.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Dana, that helpless to do anything but worry feeling sucks. I hope everyone is okay and doesn't lose anything.
I need to lie down.
I did this. For longer than I should have, even.

Mmmm. Beer. I think there's some iced tea in the fridge, but I think that's it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's really stupid, because there literally is nothing I can do, and my family is going to be fine. But god, this sucks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I should make lemonade...
There are way too many incidents of hurricane-inspired worry this season. Even though I sigh with relief every time it's not hitting Jamaica -- well, it's selfish relief. And not very good selfish relief, since I have relatives in most parts of Florida and in New Orleans too.

Dana (and -t) I hope Katrina collapses into a mild but annoying rainstorm, minimal flooding and all that.
Today, I ....played with other people's cats and did laundry at their house. And watched a lot of TLC. I think it was anyway. May have been something else. I know not the ways of cable. I've got to sit around for another 40 minutes and then I can go grocery and Target shopping.
Oh, and I ate cheese. And fruit cocktail. Cause that's all I've really got. Hence the need to grocery shop.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The only problem today is that Piazza's on the DL.
Mikey is married to a woman but has sex with men on the side?
Oh Dana, that's just the awfulest feeling.
ita, I had a pattie on coco bread yesterday. They had a "with cheese" option so I went for it. Muy tasty. Someone behind me ordered a drink called an "Irish Moss" --this was new to me.
