Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
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.
I lost almost all of today to rampant napping, which I apparently needed far more than going to see a new movie. Also, after lunch I went to Pier One and despite forgetting my gift card yet again bought what may be the most comfortable throw pillow in the history of the universe.
Why is it I only ever think of going to the local Italian restaurant on Saturday night when it's most expensive? Any other night I can get a 3-course meal for $22 or less.
For the same reason I decided a dinner of balsamic on greens and a ginger-soy tuna steak was the only thing I wanted when vinegar always makes my jaw muscles tweak and I already had a tweaking muscle. Humans are strange.
And now I literally have a KNOT at the corner of my jaw. It is kind of freaking me out. Going to apply some heat, then ice.
Humans are strange.
I was at a festival of world cultures in my town today. Or Festival of World Cultures, depending on how you look at it, I guess. 100,000 people, apparently, which is a lot where I'm from. Lots of good acts, much dancing, but I couldn't get into my local. Which is less fun. Went to a friend's new place for wine instead. We could still hear music from the main stage, which was nice. I should probably got to bed now.
Edited because I may be slightly tipsy.
I tried to nap. It should have happened. It didn't.
It's a sad day when you're too tired to sleep.
Oh, fuck me. According to the Weather Channel, the three-hour drive from New Orleans to Jackson could take 24 hours.
That's just fear-mongering, right? Even the Weather Channel needs ratings?
I-55 is supposed to be 4 lanes north-bound all the way to Brookhaven MS already. Did the Weather Channel factor that in?
