So I'm not quite gone yet...or rather, I am gone, but not out of blackberry range. ND wins WBB today for getting up before sunrise and braving a 60 mile round trip through rush hour LA traffic so that I didn't have to leave my car at work all week. He'll have to do the same thing Friday evening. Love. That. Man.

I'm enjoying a six hour busride to Sacramento at the moment. Rather peaceful, actually. We're watching The Holiday right now.

Good luck on the trip, Kristin!

Oh, that is a very good man. Have fun Kristin.

{{Beej}} What an awful thing.

Yay for Disneyland and baby bobs!

Em looks like she's have so much fun at Disney. I'm not sure which picture I like btter - the one of her running or the one of her and Mickey.

I'm so glad you got Switch back! And he is lovely even when filthy.

Is it time for Shit I Didn't Say yet?

Annoying girl (over email): "We found a few articles saying it was true... that's the great thing about the interent [sic]. You could probably prove that fish fly, the sky is purple and we're all deaf just by googling something."
Me (in my head): "Yeah, but my source is the New York fucking Times, you vapid, annoying little girl."

yay for the return of switch

Steampunk Mouse! wantwantwantwantwant!

Once again I have missed a major freeway collapse by a matter of hours. This time I passed through the 80/880 interchange on my way home from Java's on Saturday evening. Last time, I drove my last trip on the Cypress structure two days before the Loma Prieta quake brought that baby down. And my stepmother drove over the Cypress about an hour before the quake, so our local family group felt really lucky on that one.

(pats self on back for safe trip planning skills, even if it was sheer dumb luck on my part)
