What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

62° in Emeryville.

Yet, it was so hot this weekend.

Ann, that's a ferret.

100 in DC. Was 102 a while ago.

Thanks to all for the wishes for Max. Still waiting on the detailed report. (Which is actually coming from Colorado, not the West Coast. But time zones still an issue. Also that the vet treating Max is taking an extra-long weekend.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha ha ha! The Globe has a stupid "it's so hot..." blog post, and someone replied "Get over it...it's 119 in Baghdad." [link] People are awesome.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I am amused that after all the dire warnings about how we would shrivel up in the heat (and make no mistake, it's been hot since we moved down, one of the hottest Junes on record) but since it's been Heat Wave Central up north it's been (relatively- 80s) cool and rainy down here.

Rewatching The Wedding Job which I do believe is my favorite Leverage episode.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

grammar question:

...., the rising cost of healthcare and healthcare spending has been on the forefront of political and economic agendas...

That should "have" not "has" right? This is my boss's dissertation proposal, and her advisors have read it, so I am questioning myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think has is right -- the rising cost has been on the forefront.

Because books.

Sophia, yes, because you have two subjects there -- cost of healthcare and healthcare spending.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Fight! Fight!

I dunno. But since 'cost' is singular it seems to me 'has' is correct.
