I heard from my uncle - and he was at work so that seems very normal.
It turns out I had the wrong email address for him.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thank goodness sumi.
I have skimmed, but I want to offer up good thoughts to Kat's Grace's surgery, and to anyone with relatives and friends in Japan and to anyone else who needs it!

He says that my cousin Sawako is still in Sapporo and will remain there until her students come back to the university. (She teaches at Iwate University at Morioka - so who knows when that will be.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
've been watching Junior Masterchef Australia. It is inCREDible. 8-12 year olds who are basically 5 star chefs. Creative, poised, skilled and cordial.
Somehow, I can't imagine that show making it in America.
You know, I'm pretty sure the majority of Australian 8-12 year olds are not budding 5-star chefs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I called in sick today because I was up most of the night with a peculiar implacable stomachache. It feels like the sphinctre at the top of my stomach is hurting. It just hurts and hurts and nothing I can do eases it. No pills, no burping, nothing.
I said "stomach flu" on the message because I wanted to be clear it wasn't my headache.
And then I went to lie back down. But that didn't last. I had a sudden and overwhelming urge to puke. I don't puke. Puking isn't my thing. Boy, did I ever puke. I'm not sure if it helped the pain any, but I sure do feel dizzy and spent. Did I mention I never puke? Because I totally don't. Why is my stomach at war with me?
Also, why did Skype change their interface? Don't want change.

Glad to hear the update, sumi.
ita, as if you needed anything else to deal with!
I am hungry. But I don't have any bacon. I liked it better when you all talked about oatmeal and I had that.

Speaking of bacon, I was watching the cooking channel and a guy made bacon bourbon. I might have to try that.
