If you would like surreal, yet oddly addictive, entertainment, watch Kitty Dance. No fair blaming me for the earworm.

Yes, I found while I was supposed to be writing comments. What.

and-cut frites, braised Berkshire pork, gravy and melted cheddar

That's not actual poutine, brenda. You're cheating.

All that and a root canal, GC? This is not a fun couple of weeks for you, is it?

I am having a fucker of a migraine. Hit hard and knocked out some of my brain cells. I've had to seriously concentrate to prevent myself from sending bizarre work emails. Not my most productive afternoon. I don't even know if I can drive home.

But you did have the convenience of the coffee hose coming right out of your computer.

This would be the most genius invention on the planet.

Aw, GC, senidng your kitty some good vibes. .

Hey, you take what you can get in these parts.

I'm confused by my Shabbos candles. I always light them in roughly the same place, but not exactly the same place -- I just put the candlesticks on the table, so they could move a few inches to one side or the other from one week to the next. And the two candlesticks are maybe three or four inches away from each other. And each week, without exception, the candle closer to the kitchen will melt normally and without a mess, while the one further away from the kitchen will melt down really quickly and leave a huge puddle of melted wax in the candle holder. My guess at first was that one was in a draft, but it's the same whether the heat or the air conditioner is on, and whether the window is open or closed.

Just different air flow patterns. Do you walk by the messy one more? That'd be enough.

ita, get home safely.

The pain has ebbed. I'm going home.

I don't think so. I mean, it's slightly closer to the edge of the table, but not by much. They're no more than four inches away from each other. I think the thing that's puzzling me the most about this is that having the air conditioner on or the window open doesn't change the melting pattern at all.

Maybe next week I'll try having them parallel to one of the edges of the table, rather than at an angle, and see what that does.

ALL THINGS F*&^&**%^& in the WORLD. Another note home from school - about continued bad behavior ALL WEEK - and I have asked everyday this week if there were any problems and was told no. Afterschool teacher says little lies are becoming a problem also. Consider hands thrown in air. %&*^%^&%^$E$%^$%^&%^$&*%^&*%^&*%^&*(^&*(%^%&*%^&$%^&*

Home safe, ita.

That is so awesome about Gracie!!!

My parental plans of strolling around were cut short by rain, so we went to the place we were planning on having dinner at about 4:30. We stretched it out, but were still done by like 6:30, so they just went back to the hotel. Kind of awesome, for my part.
