Urgh, one of the cats(I'm guessing Nova) horked a hairball on my computer chair. Again.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

My apartment has been invaded by a swarm of houseflies, for no reason that I can discern. I don't leave food out (except avocados and I know they're not coming from those) and there's no obvious access point that they're getting in through.
That's the worst, brenda -- I know from experience!
I think my childhood pediatrician is on the radio right now doing a local news quiz! Huh.
Left or right-hand drive helps me a lot, especially for distinguising Australia/NZ/South Africa from the US and Canada
Fiona, fucking brilliant (also big fucking fail on my part). I've never been able to remember which side of the street anyone drives on--I have to mentally get into my car, work out what the placement of the steering wheel implies, and then go from there. But I didn't know the map would look like that, even counting the countries I've been driven in. Interesting.
So we appear to be out of crisis mode. Dad reports Mom's back to her condition of a week ago, but I'm not sure how good Dad's reporting is. OTOH it lets me go running with the dog with a clearer conscience...
Strix, did you use Google, or no? I want to be fair when I lose horribly.
I'm now hooked on geoguessr. Got.within 5 km when I saw a bus with the words, "Alice Springs." But I think I'm proudest when I got within 200km from only a sign that said "Sportsmen's Paradise." (I guessed the middle of Louisiana, but it was on the Gulf.). Lesson -- it's amazing what trivia helps.
On the other hand, I once guessed in South Africa when I was actually in Nova Scotia.
11916! Dammit, now I'm hooked. Guessing Gallup, AZ, from the logo on a passing truck got me over 4000 points. Then I got two scrubby forests and downtown Osaka. Forests? Tend to look alike.
