Thrive to spite them

I watched a bit of American Gladiators while I was waiting for hockey to start.

Devils scored, but then they got two stupid penalties so hopefully Tampa can score during the powerplay.

What is even happening?

I'm not sure whether to be depressed or glad of my good luck in not having needed to invoke the insurance gods.

I vote being glad of the good luck.

Yeah, it's just a grudging appreciation when I'm writing the biannual check for $700 or so.

I have a need to sneeze. It's giving me a headache. Sneeze already!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Insurance is one of those bets you make and kind of hope you don't win, you know?

I went over to a friend who has too much yarn and relieved her of a lot of it. I mean, a trashcan-sized Ziplock bag (I didn't know they made them that big!) full... the sad thing is that it doesn't look as though she got rid of much at all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

God, turning on Survivor just gave me a flashback that I had to have the conversation recently about how it's not real survival. NO IT'S NOT. It's a game show! On an island! Crikey.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oy. Looks like power is out near Kat. I hope she has some.

My eyes sting. Going from the dust whipping through the streets into a construction site--ouchie.

And I did get a wind-related booboo. I was walking past a tarp-backed chainlink fence gate that billowed out right as I went by and banged my arm. At least it wasn't the injured elbow.

Had the massage, which didn't fix me, but has added at least 30 degrees to my range of motion turning my head.

Worth the money and being late back from lunch.

We've got power. Thank god!

Back from hospital. They too have power.

ita stole my massage.

Yay more head-turning!

I hope Kat's in an island of power. It's gusty here, but then, that isn't that unusual.
