Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I took all of next week off. I have no plans but to go to bootcamp and possibly take the cat to a specialist.

Yeesh, 15 people dead in an LA train crash. Freight train and commuter train in the San Fernando valley. A Metrolink train in the Chatsworth area.

Wow, just had a rush of very negative adrenaline: I get paid on Monday. I have all my bills set to be paid ON my payday and I checked my email and I had notices that two of my bills were "sent" TODAY.

But, the messages say something about how the payment was sent but my account will be debited on Monday . . . which is weird and I hope true.

Yikes, David. I just saw pictures of that, was hoping (stupidly) it was a drill.

How awful.

Beth, you're doing a boot camp, too? I'm finding mine stimulating but exhausting, what with the doing jumping jacks at 6:30 am...

yup -- but it is a 630 pm class on mondays and wednesdays -- and no drill sargetn -- just an instructor that looks confused when I say no.( jog/walk --ok -sprint,sorry my lungs won't let me-- Hench the class). I'm committed for a month-- it is my kick start. don't think I can do if for more than a month

Yeah, I've had four days off, it's going to be hard to go back on Monday. But it really is inspirational--I did situps and pushups and weights today, just at home. And having other people there really makes me want to keep up, so I don't slow up the class.

I joined with two friends-- one who broke her foot this summer -- neither can keep up. which only matters in the park where we keep moving. But there is an older woman that is walk/jog like me - so I am the bottom of the class. However -- I made everyone confess on Wednesday before class. Even the two dancers had quads that were making them scream on the stairs( lets not talk about chairs or toilets)

Damn that train wreck is awful. DW says lots of her co-workers take the train from Burbank into the Valley, which means some could have been on it. Eek.
