why not? This America, man. We gotta let NOLA play. (/snot) I mean, from the desert this looks scary. But we had 122 one time, flash floods, and hugeass dust storms. Zombies! Hyena people! Jan Brewer!
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
That wind map is wonderful.
And Dana, punch away. But I am glad to hear your parents are safe and sound.
Seconded, in both.

The wind map is so cool.
Less cool: four U.S. soldiers arrested for right wing militia formation intending to assassinate Obama.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Happy Birthday meara!
Very cool wind map!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Erika, have you been having really unusual amounts of monsoon rain this year? It's rained more in the desert since I moved here than it has in that time in Portland. And it's not like we're equipped to do anything much with it but erosion and making everything unbearably muggy. I did get to watch a mini canyon form in my yard but this seems way different than the place I lived for nearly twenty years.

comparatively, but the last few years have been too dry.

I punched one of those people in the face for Dana this morning, on Facebook! Metaphorically. His wife helped me.
I just read the chapters I had written of my dissertation. It was an interesting experience. Two chapters were good and basically done; one was maybe 2/3 done, and the last chapter was basically just an outline. Reading the first couple of chapters was fun. Reading the third reminded me why I did not finish.
