goodness Tommy. That is a high level of dehydration. I am glad there was no stroke but damn.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My dad was dehydrated and had high sodium. So no stroke.
Very good news! That happened to my dad over the summer -- he was severely dehydrated and his sodium was ridiculously high, and his symptoms were similar to a stroke (though he had no facial droop or one-sided weakness). This is much easier to set right.

I'm glad your dad is ok, and sorry about the car.

Aaaand, they're going to have to grind off the sewer cap because it is fused and won't budge. It broke a wrench.
Fuck. Going next door to do dishes and pee.

The boss did utter a mournful "I've had that since I've been on the job. 30 years."

Public Service Announcement: TJ's frozen pumpkin bread pudding is OMG delicious.
I have made that from scratch! Take a can of pumpkin, mix with sugar, eggs and milk and pumpkin pie spices. Pour over a baking dish full of torn up stale bread from the freezer. Bake at 350 for a while.
Eat for days. So tasty. NOM.
I had a nice lunch with a cousin of a friend, who promised to send my resume around. So that was promising. And in ten minutes I have a screening interview with a placement firm, woohoo.
