What is even happening?

Yeah, it is so scary. Of course, I guess maybe it's all in what you get used to. I'm just not used to thinking of fire as weather.

Today, we had huge trees downed in our town, by wind gusts. I'm not talking hurricane winds, either. I saw what I think was a Beech, but I was driving and couldn't get a good look at it. It must have had a minimum circumference of 10-15 feet. It was broken in half, about 5 feet from the ground. If it didn't land on the house behind it, it landed right up to it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

When I was in highschool, my parents had a party for Caltech people and visiting Dutch scientists that started an hour or so after the foothills near them caught fire. Most of the caltech people were totally blase, but my parents finally ended up letting some of the Dutch people spend the night so they could keep watching.

Weren't there fires just a couple of years ago?

Alias is cracking me up. Mainly the lengths they are going to to conceal the bump. When she learns she is pregnant, I laughed, thinking wow! Oblivious much? But then, you know. Reality.

I feel kinda ooky. Not sure if I have the sludge or just the drastic weather change.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

sarameg, I was thinking the same thing.

You know, I think the last 15 minutes of the day before a vacation can be the longest ever. I just know someone's going to call and give me a long project.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's why you should leave early, Perkins.

In Alias news, is she suddenly going to be 6 months in the next episode, or what? I mean, really.

Well, Jesse, I imagine that they either have to go that route, since they missed the coma bus or more stupidly funny blocking and creative maternity wear.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
