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.

there literally is nothing I can do

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

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.

I'm gonna go for a lot less comfortable on that one. Unless you're having sex done to you, by someone very nice.

I've got this muscle in my jaw leading towards my ear that keeps spasming every time I take a drink. It's really strange and very annoying.

Want a way to freak yourself out? At some point earlier in the week, I removed a dead lightbulb from my bedside lamp, and then got distracted by something else. And then I forgot about it. So when I went to turn it on this evening, and discovered it gone, I first thought the bulb exploded. But no base inside. I had a good five minutes wondering what sort of nefarious person would plot to removed my bedroom lightbulb.

Oh yeah. Me. Old bulb is in the bathroom trash.

I know I do this. Especially with mundane little stuff like changing lightbulbs. This is one reason I've always been the sort of person that must finish a project, large or small, in one fell swoop, else it gets all weird. I guess this means I'm kinda flaky. But usually organization saves me from myself.

{{Dana}} It is easier being in the midst of it than it is when we watch from afar. Nothing to do but worry. Blah. May it rain itself out before hitting land. The last couple updates have not shown any strengthening. And it is still going directly west. Not that anyone else deserves it, but I hope it takes its time before it turns north.

my family is going to be fine.

That's the thought you should hold onto. Because a lot of people aren't going to be fine if what I'm reading in the NOAA discussion is correct.

The water temperature, the eyewall replacement cycle wrapping up, the lack of shear... I think we're looking at the possibility of an Andrew/Hugo scale storm.

There was just a very large bird I am pretty sure was a hawk (it disappeared while I was getting the binoculars) circling around the nearby canyon. It wass cool.

I just found a rewards card I thought I'd lost. It still has $60 on it.

Off to Zappos.

I propped up my porch again. At least with the termite treatment over, I can hire professionals to build me a new one.
