When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

My mom makes really good corncakes but there's not really a set recipe. It's just a cup of cornmeal, an egg, roughly half a cup of milk (enough so the texture is moist but not runny, and can be slowly poured) and sugar to taste. Instead of baking it, she pours the mix like flapjacks into a skillet with heated canola oil and flips each cake when the top side is riddled with bubbles and solidifying.

Oh, my god, I'm making that tomorrow. Thank your mother for me.

Dana! Congratulations!

Robin and DH! Congratulations!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

About 75%. A bunch of people are in summer stock outside of the city, and the timing means the ones who are still in the Cities were probably either in rehearsal or at home at the time of the collapse. My core group is fine. The one I'm most worried about is Carl, actually, since he lives so close to the bridge & uses is every day.

Thank you for asking - I appreciate it.

I'm glad the 75% is okay, and that you hear from Carl soon.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

The school bus made me choke up when I was reading it to Mr. Jane.

The universe is conspiring to keep me from talking to my friend in Houston. He's been working late, and I've been going to bed early. He called earlier, but I was driving in a shitstorm and said I'd call after I settled in at home and Mr. Jane was off to work. Called a bit ago and got voicemail.

Universe,
Why am I not supposed to talk to Seth? Is he going to tell me something awful or are we going to have a huge fight? What's up?

Just curious,
DJ
