Interesting day.
The only thing I can add is that my sisters and I were in SF and looked at a book that had pictures of animals having sex. there were turtles. and giraffes. and rhinos.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I had occasion at my work picnic today to mention the mating habits of the Indian rhino. 'Twas a good picnic.

Whoa. I only thought I was getting good steak at places like Outback and Lone Star. Today I ate at a Brazillian churrascaria, and the sirloin was just amazing. The only beef I've had to compare was a $40 filet at La Tourelle a few years back. (Unless bison counts as beef - then I've had a couple other steaks at exotic restaurants that were as good.)
I did not need to make this discovery while I'm trying to save money for the SF trip.

I'm realizing that I've never given notice at a real job. I don't know how it's done!

Picanha (I forget the name in English) is truly the best beef I've ever had. (It's the one that's round and there are usually 3 stakes on a skewer.) When we lived in Brazil, we used to go to a churrascaria about once a week simply because the food was so good (and cheap). There's a decent churrascaria in Durham and Joe and I are hoping to go there one more time before we leave (maybe with flea and mr. flea).

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

I don't think this is the jaw or bite so much as just stressing and clenching the jaw. The clench is just a symptom that then leads to worsening. I try to put my tongue inbetween my teeth so I don't shut them but then I forget. And clench.
Cass, I totally have this problem, and I got a bite guard that is designed to prevent you from clenching your jaw and it works well. My bite is only slightly off, but the clenching can actually alter your bite. My dentist was skeptical that it would help my headaches (it only apparently helps in a relatively low percentage of tension headaches), but it does. When I feel a headache coming on from jaw tension, I'll put my bite plate in and lie down for an hour or so, and it wards them off or alleviates a lot of the pain.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Really? That would be great. Thanks, Sue. Must go find dentist now. I'll get a rec today.

I have a bite plate to. I've had it for 10 years and I've almost chewed through it. It's saving my teeth from being ground down to nothing.
