I look more rad than Lutheranism

I am quoting directly from this article (which I could just link and leave it at that, but I already copied the text):

The sun spit out a sizable Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) around 2pm EDT Monday. It only takes the light from the sun about eight minutes to get to the earth but it takes several hours for us to feel the effects of a CME.

SpaceWeather.com relayed a report from the Goddard Space Weather Lab saying, "the impact [of the CME] caused a strong compression of Earth's magnetic field, allowing solar wind to penetrate all the way down to geosynchronous orbit for a brief period."

Now I gotta go look out for aurora.

This is the stressed out dumped rescue kitten as of tonight: [link]

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

AWB is slaying me with the awake cutitude.

Thankfully, AWB sleeps plenty. But those times don't make for as interesting photos. So when he *is* awake, I try to seize the moment (photographically speaking).

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So, I went out to my front yard. Saw the Big Dipper, no auroras.

Oh, wow, adorable AWB, Jon!!

Oh, wait, hey! BABY! Congrats, Jon & FAQWife. It's fun catching them awake. Watching tiny brains explode with stimulus and "wait, what is that coming at me! It's attached to me! OW!" Or, you know.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Thankfully, AWB sleeps plenty.

He's the perfect baby! Quick labor and sleeps!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay for AWB!

I looked for the northern lights, but I'm all clouded in. No elk, either.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Fantastic AWB pics!

Warner Brothers will be pulling the Harry Potter DVDs out of circulation on December 29.

So my plan to wait for the Deathly Hallows movies to be bundled is not such a good one. Hmp.

I wish I could boat out into the lake for some sky watching.

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

Which phlebotomist?

I go to the small lab in the 100 building. I'd imagine you go to the one in the 200 building? There's one guy there whose name I don't remember (it's Hispanic) who's so good they called him over to 100 once. But in 100, the only person who even bothers if she's there is Melissa. And I love her. She talks to my arms, and in accents. She's a nutjob.

Parker Posey is going to be on The Good Wife next week. I can only wonder what kind of lawyer she's going to play...
