Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Blargh on the uptalk. If you want ask people what they think or aren't sure, use a freakin' qualifier.

I woke up too late to make it to the gym. I put on gym clothes and ran out the door, looked at the clock, and realized I'd only have 15 minutes before i would have to go home and jump in the shower for work. My day is thrown.

Hoping that working late means I can get out early and make it before it closes.

Art Crawl!!!

I used the last of my meds on Sunday - thinking that I could just call in and get a refill. Of course, I didn't even look at them yesterday (I was out of sorts and not wanting to go anywhere) so I tried refilling them today and realized that I am out of refills. I made an appointment with my doctor (for the 22nd) and then talked to the refill nurse: it could be 48 hours. Is it just in my head that I'm starting to feel odd? (It's bp meds and allergy stuff I am refilling.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ha. Someone just let an f-bomb drop in the Tour de France coverage.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My folks live in Beaufort -- or I guess I should say in the surrounding area. Pretty place,not where I want to live

It is a gorgeous town, but boy howdy, was I being eaten alive by the bugs there! We ate dinner outside on the riverwalk, and the waitress brought out some Off to spray around the table and on us because the mosquitoes were so nasty. And it was only the first week of April--I hate to think what they're like right now! I only took those few pics of Beaufort the next morning because I had to retreat to the car to get away from them.

I'll add the way she said, "Bushed!" on last night's show.

I think that was because she'd been trying to imitate KO's deep drawl of the word in the past and could never match it, so she decided to go the opposite for effect.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hi-larious -- who was it? I always get the feeling that they're barely controlling their normal profane ways on the air.

(Also, is today the first TT? I've barely been keeping up so far.)

Someone in David Millar's team car. I think he's on Garmin-Chipotle? They certainly sounded American.

Yep. They didn't start with a time trial this year.

Huh, I didn't even notice. (Well, they're not actually used to being on tv are they? It's not like they're the regular commentators or something.)

Punishingly Intricate

Women and Canadians.

Hah! Exactly. It drives me crazy even when I know it's just the Canadian accent. I strive to be more tolerant of it.

I know I was only out one real business day but I feel so out of it and behind on everything. In a fog. I think turning off my alarm by mistake this morning and then being woken from very deep sleep at 8 only because i'd happened to set an alarm on my phone for something else and happened to have my phone bedside has thrown me off-kilter.

If only for the fact that the way they pronounce Beaufort would drive me crazy.
