Happy birthday, -t!
Tomorrow we get to find out if the freezing rain will be "historic" or "catastrophic."
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'd stay inside either way!

Here's hoping that the east coast ice storm fizzles into a drizzle.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Thanks, y'all. My brother says the downside of Dad not complying with the orders is that he'll never be able to eat anything chewy again. Which would suck: he loves him a good steak. And pie.
So that's the argument we're going to make: liquid diet, or no pie ever again!
SIGH.

It's a good argument and might get through. It's so hard when there are cognition challenges.

Random fact learned tonight: they use five different kinds of chocolate to make ExLax, depending on what market it's going to. And it's nicer to work in that part of the plant than over by the antacids, which smells of cherry. This is dinner conversation when you're surrounded by guys who run pharmaceutical manufacturing plants.
Also lots and lots of work gossip. Money quote from a bigwig: "We'll resume this conversation someplace a lot more private and with more alcohol."
Got stupid (pre-alcohol) and am soooo sunburned. I will be skipping 6 am yoga with all of the other women in the group, thanks so much. But this morning there was a 90-some degree temperature differential between home and here (84 v. -7). I'll take that.

I'm supposed to be flying through Atlanta to Lexington KY on Friday - are these storm shenanigans supposed to be gone by then?

So very jealous right now.
I am at a sleep center waiting to get hooked up to sensors and shit, fingers crossed they find something, preferably something easily fixed?

Good luck, meara!
