I don't think he was used for bizarre science fiction experiments, though someone may have wanted to play with his genetics, weird as they are.

I didn't think to ask if they'd been digitized, but I suspect not. I'm suspecting some combination of "We're out of space/weird idea about medical privacy/dear god, the storage space costs how much, and these people keep having how many kids?" at work.

out of emotional spoons for the day. goodnight.

Goodnight, msbelle. Hope you get some spoon restorative rest.

Sleep well, and gather more spoons

I've become unfond of unusual nature patterns.

Last night was one giant tornado watch-warning-watch-warning, severe thunderstorm warning and flash flood warning. Television last night consisted solely of radar. After I started trying to sleep, every hour either the weather radio went off or the dog decided he had to go out in case the noise was something dangerous. That usually entailed his barking until I got up and opened the door. Then he saw the rain and came back in.

There's a swath of damage across Georgia, but so far no deaths have been reported.

I know someone in Huntsville AL, and they had a tornado yesterday (they had 6 total) that followed the track of the EF5 tornado they had in April 2011!

At a certain point, I would consider moving. I said at work yesterday, "I hate tornadoes" and all the students laughed at me ("nobody *likes* tornadoes!") but seriously. They're horrible because there's almost nothing you can do to be prepared.

I saw a report that a house that had just been rebuilt from the April tornadoes was hit again.

Six companies have dropped out from sponsoring Limbaugh. Six!

Awesome.

92 tornados today, across 10 states. Dang.

So incredibly not awesome.

This. Just hunker down and hope it passes you by. I don't even know what I'd do in this house - hop in the bathtub with the dog and my comforter. Not that I don't love my cats, but I'd bleed out trying to hold onto them.

Oh, god, how awful. All that stress and expense and effort, and it's gone again.

JZ, that was a lovely homage to the records of the past. Thank you.

I will not mourn Fred Phelps when he passes. That is all.

Wishing you a extra-full complement of spoons, msbelle, and a less demanding day.
