Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm home now. Just got back from watching the UFC fights. R has a huge beanbag chair that I think might cure migraines. Have to work out how to steal it.
And now...to eat. I've felt migrainely very nauseous and fairly dizzy all day, so an actual roast beef sandwich is huge. I'm very excited.
Bear with me.

I'm here. I found out that a restaurant serving saganaki just opened in Collierville, so I drove out to give it a try. I had some wait service and headache issues, but the food was very good—everyone be sure to try Greek style squash if you ever see it offered.
Magic Eraser can't seem to improve my grout, but it lived up to its name with the tub proper. I am amazed that what I thought was a permanent discoloration in the enamel came up without too much scrubbing.

So, I skipped. Of course. But only because ccording to the Buffista Calendar, today is Jeff Mejia's birthday, and I really hope he gets the well-wishes somehow, even though I haven't seen posts from him in forever.

I was home on Saturday night! I went to bed at 7:30, with the baby. It rocked!

Yes, Hippo Birdies to Jeff, whereever he is!
I had a frustrating time with insomnia (headache, aches, stiff as a board) last night, but finally conquered it with drugs... which is giving me a hard time in the way of waking up this morning. The cats are very motivational in their single-minded-we-must-be-fed way.

When you're racing - it's life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.
Matt, what's the name of that restaurant? I might try it sometime, though I'm not so sure I'm willing to drive to Collierville to eat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poking my head once more to post two important things.
The first is that I handed in that report. Only three hours of sleep tonight (if there hadn't been shabbat in the middle, I never would have made it), but it's out of my hands now. When I gave it to the person in charge in the research authority, I couldn't help myself but ask: "that's it? There's nothing more I'm supposed to do about it now?". He said that no, it's all him from now on. Of course, twenty minutes later he called asking to be e-mailed some information, and I think I recognized all these horror-movies talk about a "chill through the bones" and stuff when I heard his voice, but he just wanted another layer of backup, just wanted to make sure everything was OK, and we're all good.
The second thing, which is a little less meMeME but is much more important, is that it's raining here! I woke up from those almost-three-hours crashing I had on, like, 6:30, because drops of water were falling on my face (which is a much nicer way to write "because I was stressed and knew I'm behind", isn't it?), and I didn't imagine them, and it wasn't some evil wake-up-early-and-get-back-to-work fairy, or even a not-evil one (they call this thing responsibility, right?). It was actual rain.
I had my hair and my feet and my arms all wet by the time I got to my room in the university, and I didn't mind, I was so happy about the actual new fres first rain. I was sure it would end later, to be replaced by blue sky and lots of sun as if nothing happened (we had a scorcher only on Friday, you know), but no - there were still clouds, and when I went to bind and arrange the booklets of the copies of the report, I had to go between one rain and another, much stronger one.
I love having weather!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Radiator turned on last night. For other reasons Bob and I were sleeping in the living room, conveniently enough to awaken to the drip-drip-drip of the upstairs neighbor's radiator making its way into our apartment.
