There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Shit. I bought a new camera (didn't open it in the store. Stupid.) Came home and the lcd is fried. Back to the store we go.

I was just thinking the same thing, shrift.

Sweet, blessed silence!

And to think we get to do this all over again tomorrow. You probably have it worse than I do since I'm farther north.

hip deep in pie

I don't know about the Hogwart's theme park. On the one hand, I'd like to leave it to the imagination. On the other, I hear that the production designer from the movies is involved and I do love the visuals that they created for the world in the films. But it doesn't really matter that much in the end because the odds of me visiting a theme park in Florida are slim unless I meet someone who likes theme parks. I am afraid of heights, and get motion sickness on buses, so I'm not a prime customer for any theme park.

It's unbelievable how loud it is.

I ran into my neighbor in the park this morning and he said the Raptor was going so fast you could see the air currents move around it. Freaky.

Things were rattling earlier. It was so loud that I had to pause the movie I was watching the moment I heard them coming.

I should make food. Maybe I'll start randomly throwing shit in a pot until it turns into soup.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I remember bon, and I remember Jeopardy, I just didn't know about Laga. Anyway, too cool. We iz smrt.

O, how I have missed you, internets. We were down for about five hours today. Woe. Fortunately it happened while I was mostly teaching. Now I'm back and need to procrastinate, for many are the receipts I must type. And then reconcile. And then file. More woe.

And then dishes and then folding laundry and then general housecleaning, because I am going on a mini-vacation! The SO & I are sneaking off to Albuquerque (don't tell!) so we can try to gain some sanity before we're really into the school year full tilt.

Yeah, it's not the kind of noise you can ignore. You just kind of have to grit your teeth and wait for it to end.

And let's not forget the cacophony of car alarms and freaked-out dogs following every fly-by.

Georgetown Running, as I recall. It's on M right near the bridge.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Earplugs are wonderful things. I can't stand noise.
