Okay, I read that as Buffistas.
Well now, that would probably have made the front page too.
I'm just gobsmacked. I knew there were fires around the city, but not this bad.
Whoa. Good myth.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Haircut, manicure, and cat hut and food achieved. Car still filthy. Every carwash had lines out the wazoo. Not surprising, since it was positively balmy.

Hey, it's not like I was driving directly towards them, you know? Ok, it was like I was driving directly towards them, but I turned off easily minutes before I would've got there.

That was weird.
I read accounts of the fire that destroyed Mount Stromlo, from people who lived through it. Fire season is terrifying. I lived through one the summer I was in Flagstaff. Watched slurry bombers work at the edge of town from Lowell's crypt.

Every time we get big fires around here, even if they're not close, it's like the apocalypse. It's one of the things I love about living here.

I found that fire more frightening than yesterday's. My family is in Canberra. It's not a big place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oy, my brownies were completey undercooked, which I didn't realize until I had let them (and consequently, the oven) cool down. Annoying!

Yikes to it all, billytea.
Work took up both a monetary and paper (extra copies of journals, research materials, etc) collection when it happened. The field is small and incestuous, so we all knew someone who knew someone who worked there at some point.
