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

I, too, have a 7AM meeting, ita. But I am so very glad that it is a teleconference from my home office, rather than something I have to commute somewhere for.

Aargh. Mine's not only not a con call, it's in a strange building with strange people. And my brain is leaking out through my nostrils. I gotta go.

I fret about how much water is being used up

I don't think that's a big fret unless your showers are short, but I don't remember the cutover.

Google tells me it depends.

I'm pretty sure I use less than a full tub of water for a regular morning shower, but I haven't actually tested it. When I had waistlength hair, my showers took forever and a bath probably would have been more energy efficient.

For the threepeat:

Migraine's won. No way I can be coherent in half an hour, even though I could be present. Why can't I ever make it more than a week? Why can't my doctor find a stupid painkiller? Grr.

Okay, back to bed for me.

I think you're right, but it SEEMS like more. Plus, I'd rather not fret over how much I use for a shower, so I've displaced that worry onto the bath. Look, it's my coping mechanism, okay?

Timelies.

ita, I'm so sorry. My mother had to handle migraines for most of her life, but now she hardly has them.

Re showers: I shower in the evening, because I'd like to be clean before I go to bed. In Israeli sweaty summers I also take a shower in the morning or before I have to leave the house. I remember a day when I took 4 showers in 24 hours: morning, before leaving for a concert, after returning from a concert and in the morning after it again. Plus, if I take a shower in the morning, hair goes bananas.

Re article with a cool name (thoughts of death make us eat more cookies): SO needs to be an album title.

Re Kat: all the ~ma in the world.

I can't remember what else I wanted to Re about. So tired. It's so hot. I'm so happy it's weekend in an hour, and a long one, followed by a holiday.

And this morning I sent a picture of my tank top, with me in it, to an internet person (friend) I never met. Seemed reasonable at the time. It must be the heat.

OK, gotta be a good girl now, and wrap work for this week.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I didn't know that was POSSIBLE!

Yup. A friend of mine is actually allergic to the meat of all ungulates. She's tried most hooved animals that are served as food and always broken out in hives. She's pretty much meatless except for some chicken now and then.

My asshole brother in law once pooh-poohed my mom's allergy and slipped ground venison into a batch of chilli. Mom took one bite and instantly started to get huge hives all over her face.

Cash, your mother sounds like a Far Side cartoon.

Heh. Yup.

Owen woke up at 3:30 a.m. complaining of mosquitos in his room. I shut his window and spent a half an hour trying to convince him there were no mosquitos in there but he was up. We came downstairs and I thought he'd fall asleep. No such luck. He's going to crash and burn before he goes to his last day of preschool, I suspect.

There's not enough coffee to conquor the gronk this morning.

I thought it was dry! I was promised a dry heat! Is it not dry?
