Yeah, I love that one a lot. I think it came from Conan or Jimmy Kimmel or somesuch.

I've been following it, Jesse. The woman involved is an author, and the way she handled the whole situation was amazing. The committee's post this morning was a relief to see.
If I wasn't phone typing, I'd link to some posts. Instead, I know Scalzi put up a link list last week on Whatever.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't believe I went down to tell my apartment manager about a blocked drain without the August rent cheque. Hello, Megan!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Horse jumping just came on here (I know there's a more technical term for it), and the jumps are hysterical. It's like a tour of London. I think there's a jump with Handel on it.

I have a lot of tchotchkes. All sentimental. And I hate dusting. Problem!
I beat the storm in the pool; they closed it while I was showering. And then I ran home in the first gusts which were really worse for the dust blowing off the construction site. And reminded myself running feels awesome for the first 10 strides or so, and then I hate it again. And then I climbed on the porch roof in the rain because the wind knocked a bunch of crap into the drain and it was backing up. FUNTIMES.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I got back to Pennsylvania. Now I'm trying to decide what to do about dinner. I've narrowed it down to two options -- either walk to the Chinese place down the street and get some fried rice, or drive into town (about 20 minutes) and go to the Thai restaurant. Fried rice doesn't sound overly appealing right now, but neither does driving.

Yikes. The Chief of Pediatric Surgery at Childrens Memorial here drowned this morning rescuing two kids he saw struggling in the water. There's just something so awfully - apt is not the word I want, but I don't know what is. Ugh.

How sad and tragic and heroic and...yeah, horribly appropriate?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Geez. Is my impression that there have been a lot of drownings in Chicago this year correct? I know undertow has been a big problem.
