Those sound amazing. I WANT.

Also, yikes.... Suzi, I am continually amazed at your bravery.

In a bizarre story, a man and his car went over into a ravine next to the Angeles Highway. He was missing for days (5 or 7?) so his kids did a search and found him. He was next to another car with man who had been missing (and dead) for 10 days. How bizarre that the two cars, which weren't in an accident together, were in the same spot. [link] Article about it. Both men are over 65 and that stretch of road is all curves and inclines. Scary.

I think beth b knows one of those people, but I don't know which one.

Eek. Because of Perkins' gmail experience I checked my own account--disabled! I submitted a report, on my single gmail account, since I'd never logged out, and it was still active enough to submit the report. I never got an email at my other account indicating gmail had gotten my email, but I tried logging in a few minutes later, and ba-bing, I'm up again.

Oh. And in the time it took to type this, I just got an email from gmail acknowledging my complaint and suggesting steps to take.

Um. Guess I need to do some backup, huh?

Wow. Gmail must be hiccuping.

Meanwhile, I've had HRTV on all day (lots of good races today!) and there's a race with a horse in it named Farmer Giles.

But they pronounce it with a hard rather than a sot g.

Woohoo! He can totally do it. Gonna run the numbers for me & get back to me. And my neighbor's daughter came along and as is usual, fell for Mister Kitty.

I actually feel pretty good about what I've gotten done today, despite the hours of freaking out. Library, post office, laundry, nails, and have an appointment to see what's sure to be a crappy apartment on Monday. There are two reasonable neighborhoods I think I can get into, so I have a little bit of focus, which is good.

Although I could live on the beach in a three-bedroom for less than I'm paying now, and that's pretty tempting, except for the commute.

Okay, Fall TV report.

I have watched the following new tv series:

"A Gifted Man", "Prime Suspect", "Revenge", "Homeland", and "Pan Am."

"Homeland" and "Revenge" are my favorites and shows I will continue to watch. I have dropped AGM and PS after the 2nd ep. I don't know yet what I'm going to do about "Pan Am."

I had never heard of Homeland until I saw it mentioned the other day.

The only new show I'm really excited to watch is American Horror. Which could either be Twin Peaks with even more sex and blood, or a total train wreck.

I keep meaning to watch Revenge, but seriously, my DVR was full by the time I got home Friday, so I can't add something else! And have issues giving stuff up.

This totally recommends it. But not enough to overcome my inertia.

I love that the Revenge people get the campiness. There was an article that Linda Holmes did about Charlie's Angels that mentioned that the Revenge people were giggling at the idea of EVK ending each episode shaking her fists at the sky.
