Hey, I found that show that John Noble is narrating, Dark Matters! It's sort of cool.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So. My date.
Friday we had the best Hawaiian pizza ever. Saturday we drove to Mobile--the USS Alabama was awesome! Then we had amazing BBQ pork and went to a restaurant/bar to see Sugarcane Jane play. (They're a country/rock band from Florida, fronted by a husband and wife team with absolutely amazing harmonies.) Monica (my date) is a big fan of Alabama football, as is everyone down there, so there weren't too many people there to see the show. So we watched this amazing concert while watching Alabama play Florida on the TV, which also was awesome. The husband and wife of Sugarcane Jane came to talk to us, and Monica bonded with the wife. (Monica is going to take her yarn shopping when Sugarcane Jane play Tuscaloosa in two weeks.) Anthony Crawford (the husband) has played with a shitload of great performers, including Neil Young, so they did a lot of Neil Young covers. Great fun.
Then we went back to the hotel, where Monica had booked us separate rooms. We watched the end of the Alabama/Florida game, which ended with Alabama kicking Florida's ass. We hugged... and continued hugging for a while. And it turned out we only needed one room.
I am tired but happy, somewhere in Tennessee. Oh, and apparently I'm now in a long-distance relationship. I'm going to drive down to Tuscaloosa again in November, and Monica is going to spend part of her Christmas break in Chicago with me.

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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Good date!
Plumbing is amazing when it works. Ugh. I have all of my towels washing and showered. I did not succumb to washing myself after the shower in alcohol. And I fixed the toilet. I am now applying a glass of wine internally to counteract the adreneline.

Woot!! I had great luck in an LDR with one person in Chicago.
oh, man, I need to go to bed. And these cats better come snuggle with me. I am NOT turning on the heat (until November if I can help it).
