I wish the Jurassic Park T-Rex advice worked on everything. I'm excellent at freeze tag.

The problem with T-Rex advice is that I suspect T-Rex hunted as much or more by smell as movement.

If West Chester is okay - I hope that means that Glenmoore is too. (I have family there.)

The flooding right around here has subsided, but there are some nearby areas that are pretty bad.

Bob got to Philly with no problem. In two hours which is the best you can expect. Am crossing everything for the weather predicted for Provincetown this weekend holds! Sunny and highs around 70. I'd really love to see the sun again! (Plus my friend's wedding is outside on Saturday and I'm not sure they have a rain plan!)

I swear to god, by the time I get Sara's bus stop changed, the school year will be over. Argh. And good work, district, letting her off on a block with no sidewalks, both-sides parking, and a company with big trucks in and out of their parking lot (and usually blocking the street!) all the day.

the real question is: in a squash court do you punch the cheetah or not?

I had a very frustrating convo with guy at church who keeps asking me out. Nice enough person, but he doesn't listen. He may be attracted to me, but he continually tells me he thinks we connect - and it just seems more and more obvious to me that he has an idea of what I am because I lived in NYC and went to a NE liberal arts school and yadda yadda. He's in academia and likes to discuss things and be very cerebral. I want to tell him that just because I get more of his references than the other people in our class it does not mean we are BFF or soulmates. He gets close to none of my more mainstream pop culture references.

Hee.

That guy possibly thinks you're as close to ideal as he's going to find in your area? I mean, of course you are, but maybe not vice-versa.

We're okay in West Chester, but I was surprised to find lots of school closings and delays on the news this morning.

A friend of mine in Emmaus sent her kid off for his first day of Kindergarten on Tuesday, and he's been home ever since!

Punch the cheetah.

My car started this morning, but as I turned the key I had momentary panic.

I have to go forth to Twitter to convince an actor that I'm not psychotic and to email me. I hate this shit. Also, I have four hours worth of work to stretch into eight. It's the shitty part of a three day week in which everyone is on vacation and so I am left with dreaded filing.

Quick hair dye question, in case anyone is an expert:

I'm dying it a much brighter red, and right now it's... kind of a dark auburny red. I actually dyed it brown last time, but it's been red for so many years that I don't think it's ever going to fully go away. It's probably a bit too dark to take to the brighter red easily, so I was thinking of trying the most obnoxiously bright red shade I can possibly find in the store to see if that ends up being a normal, awesome bright red?

I know that it would be easier to just get it done in a salon, but I'm a) still scarred from the bad haircut, and b) don't have any money.
