Ginger, do you have any sense of what the weather is supposed to be like tomorrow? They had a tornado warning in Athens tonight. And tomorrow we have to drive from Cincinnati to Athens. My father is suggesting we stick to 75 and go via Chattanooga and not risk the mountains.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'm so done with 15 year old boys right now. My own took a short nap and woke up grumpy as all git out. He is off to karate now and I called to make it an hour instead of just a half hour. He needs the work out and I need him away from me. A classmate of his, who used to do karate, is a friend on FB. This kid just posted something completely offensive and I couldn't help myself. I called him on it. Waiting to see if there is any fall out from that.

That's the one thing I've learned about Ben, who is normally mellow and sunny. Wake him up and you get growls and grunting and actual bad temper.

Ginger, be safe! Race cars or not.

Oof. I am petering out, all y'all! Help me keep going!

Go, Liese, go!! Have you taken time to keep fueled with food and liquid?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Flea, in Atlanta and Athens it's supposed to stop raining by morning, with a chance of thunderstorms starting in the late afternoon. This system is moving north and east, so it looks like there'll be fairly heavy rain in the Appalachians through tomorrow. The whole area, including North Georgia, is under a flash flood watch until Wednesday. It will be overcast and cooler, so a repeat of the freaky winds is unlikely.

The kid I called out on FB deleted the post in question. I'll take that as a win.

Gonna go back to the dojo in a bit to catch the evening adult class. Need to do as much as I can before my test.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

No, you're right, I need a snack. I've been doing good with the water, but I should grab something to eat.

The SO came in and talked to me right at the pivotal point, which resulted in swapping out a smaller end table for in here from the media room, bringing in a chair from the media room, moving out a shelf to the studio, and moving the chair in the studio to the media room. Which is all going to be super great, I think, but I wasn't planning on that much furniture moving when I started this!

And now I can't find the notebook where I wrote down the new office org plan! Ha!

I totally read that as food and liquor. MOAR WINE.

You have made a ton of progress; I'm impressed. I got caught up in errands and then did not do what I said I was going to re: the office. Fail.

My nails are done. That's... something. And there's a peach cobbler in the oven. But, yeah, I guess I pretty handily avoided labor this Labor Day.

Woo!
