Dana, good ~ma to you and yours! May everyone be all right.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
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.

That just makes it worse. It does suck, even knowing they will be fine.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Well, Mikey is now married to a woman; I don't know what he does with his free time. I think it's probably a little less comfortable to have sex (with male or female) when you have broken bones in your hand.
And looking at that paragraph, I realize that it makes me look like I do not know how sex works, but I am pretty sure that doing anything with broken bones in your hand is uncomfortable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm gonna go for a lot less comfortable on that one. Unless you're having sex done to you, by someone very nice.
