Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think the smell center in the brain is closest to the memory center or something to that effect. Makes smells very powerful memories.

Crazy powerful. And often quite unexpected.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I cannot believe this Giants team. But it's a good kind of disbelief.

::high fives javachik::

When I was working with Kevin last year I said, "When the Giants win their first World Series in San Francisco, Tim Lincecum will fire the strikeout into Buster Posey's glove."

But I didn't think we'd have a shot at in Buster's rookie season.

Off to Texas.

Wah. I've missed all of you people; the third un-ending week is still in high gear. I have agreed to make treats for Noah's halloween party. This is what I made: [link] What is wrong with me?

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

Truly we live in a golden age. I used my debit card in a parking meter. Why haven't I done this before?

I can get into the long-term parking at the airport with a card. No ticket. Go in with the card, use the same one leaving days later and get a receipt. It's amazing.

I LOVE that. Sadly, I mostly don't use the airport parking (too expensive)

I also love using credit for parking...except it encourages them to jack the rates.

The long-term at PDX is not really any costlier than any other local options. Weird, right? I mean, I could save .05 cents a day. That's not worth not using the airport's bus for me.

This was just by the side of the street! I paod 50¢. Which I totally didn't have on me in coins.

I'm having so much fan with this new scanner.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've been doing that just long enough that I'm now charmed by coin meters. Especially if they take dimes and nickles!
