Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Not this morning, but yesterday I finished a spreadsheet that takes measurements in inches, computes the lengths you need to draft a bodice, sleeve and skirt pattern black, and makes them available in centimeters and fractions. I am pretty proud. I just hope I chose a method that will work fairly well.

Sophia, that's pretty cool.

K bought a new car (elantra touring -- with seat warmers

That's what I have! I love it! I don't have seat warmeers, but I do have a sunroof.

I'm probably not in the storm's path, although I expect we'll get heavy rain and wind. I'm concerned about my sister, on the Virginia coast, with all the big trees around her house, and my friends in NJ and NYC. The folks on tv are saying this will be the OMG Worst Storm Ever. They've already declared a state of emergency in Maryland.

Jen, no it won't. You can move stuff from your iPod to iTunes, but you may lose some metadata. And I have had friends wipe out their ipod when it synched with an empty iTunes, so I would make sure it was set to manual synch.

Thanks, Sue. I will investigate further. Damn, I hope I can save all this stuff.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Were we talking about ROUSs earlier? Because holy fucking shit. Marcy Houses is not my neighborhood, but it is WAY TOO CLOSE IF THOSE ARE LIVING THERE.

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

That is indeed the rat in question.

Ah, my fault for not following links.

Fucking Hell!!! I did not need to see that picture. OTOH, the rats on my street suddenly don't seem that bad.

Yeah, good lord--I thought the rats in DC were bad, if I were living near a bunch of THOSE I'd probably walk around on stilts.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My Cow-orker has a 2 day old mouse he is trying to save. I hope it doesn't grow into that!!!

That thing is bigger than one of my cats. That ain't right.
