Oh I hope you don't need to evacuate, Laura. I can't remember the Hurricane names getting this far down in the alphabet, before. I'm sure they have and I was just not paying attention, but it really just needs to stop it!
It's the first time they've gotten down this far since 1933 or something.
HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!!!
I was late to work. oh well. Thank dog the pantry at work got re-stocked, I was able to breakfast in house for $0. Whee!
I forgot to pack my DVDs, but I think I can manage to get back to my place and pick them up on the way to the airport.
Actual Information:
This season now shares the record for the most hurricanes in one season with 1969. On Monday, Wilma became the season's 21st named storm, tying the seasonal record first set in 1933.
I was close, but no cigar.
Laura, I hope it turns out to be nothing. Or at most a wimpy rainstorm.
The cat decided to use me as a springboard, with claws, at 5:13 am. Then I had a hard time falling back to sleep. Then I had ooky dreams. Around 6 I woke myself up laughing because in my dreams I was having ooky dreams and thought I really needed something to laugh at. And so something was provided (now that I remember, it wasn't funny. It was a bottle of handlotion) and I laughed in the dream dream (still following?) and that made me laugh in my dream and it woke me up again.
What in the
hell
did I ingest yesterday?
My cat decided to suck on my sleeve and knead my arm at 3:00 am. I do not quite know what to do about the sucking habit. Websites say it is a comfort for the kitty, but frankly, the kneading hurts. The suggestion is to get the kitty to knead something other than me, but I am sure warm arm feels better to knead than blanket.
I never went back to sleep, even after kicking the cat out of the room.

Happy day to Calli and Burrell!
On Monday, Wilma became the season's 21st named storm, tying the seasonal record first set in 1933.
Holy moly. But I have a question: if it's the 21st named storm, how come it starts with the 23rd letter of the alphabet? Shouldn't it be Hurricane Uma?
Sophia, a friend of mine has a cat with the sucking/kneading issue. He started out especially liking knits, so if you weren't paying attention, you'd end up with cat slobber spots on your tshirts. They eventually found out he liked fleece even more than tshirt/people and got him his own, so whenever he starts up, they throw the fleece at him and he's diverted.
I tell them at least he doesn't hump them.
I hope the Zmayhems get unsick soon.
Shouldn't it be Hurricane Uma?
I believe they skip U, X, Y, and Z. And possibly Q. Pity. If we had to have this many hurricanes in a season, the least they could do would be to name one "Xena". Or "Zod". I'm not picky.
