Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

I've just spent the best part of the past two hours of my life on this, so here is my best-ever GeoGuessr (32394 points):

I got a direct hit! I didn't think that was actually even possible.

The last one took forever, but I got there in the end.

Can I stop now, please?

Excellent work Mr. Sox!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Dammit, Fiona.

t have just lost half an hour playing a round of game (to the paltry points of 11,000-something)

I've never heard of GeoGuessr! I can see how this could turn addictive... (teaches me to wander into Natter when I have a project due)

HMOG, I think I'm not yet acclimated to this heat. 25 minute walk on campus and I had to go stand over the ac vents in the server room to dry my head. And it didn't even feel that hot out!

Maybe it's the humidity? I walked two miles this morning and was wringing sweat an hour later even after a shower. (Also, my glasses fogged up the instant I stepped out of the car as if I were in a cartoon.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Congrats, Sox's DH!

I would love to do one of those tests on the Biscuit, but seeing as how we just got a (donated, bless them) $500+ vet bill for dentistry, not happening. But the dog is happy and healthy with clean teeth at almost eleven, so it's all good.

I think we'll do that on our new barely-a-puppy-now dog Gunnar. He's a real mystery even though he looks most like a Great Dane.

I question your decision to describe to us an almost-certainly adorable barely-a-puppy without providing photograhpic evidence. I think we're owed that much.

Well, these are out of date, but he's awfully cute in these.

He's about 65-70 lbs now, and think that's pretty much as big as he'll get.

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

I support and endorse brenda's outrage and am thankful for the response.
