It's going to be rainy and in the 60s, so whichever that means for you, ita.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'd say short, but coming from LA you might feel differently. (It's supposed to be high 50's/low 60's the rest of this week, so chilly for April but not freezing.)

Probably not aaaalll the data I'd like, but some. [link]
Like I said, we'll see. A lot of that I'm like whatever. I've got AAA (though I might drop it this year because Mazda's warranty for the next 4 yrs duplicates a lot of it, otoh, I have used hotel, turbotax and rental discounts) and Mazda is super annoying/proactive about letting me know about all maintenance and stuff (though they are way ahead of schedule because I'm not a normal driver- I might just break 3K miles at 1 yr of ownership. Maybe.)
It's raining so hard it sounds like a street sweeper is out on the front porchand Loki wants to go the fuck out. Knocking things down, banging the blinds like he hasn't in ages and racing from one end of the house, crashing into walls, crying. I should throw him out in the rain!

Oh, huh, I have State Farm. Hm.

My dog, on the other hand, is crashed out on the couch and probably should go out again before we go to bed but, dag, do I not want to go out in this cold mess! bleh

My Y locker room convos and fb feed were full of dogs' refusals to go out in this shit.
I offered the deck. Loki looked appalled, Pumpkin offended. And now Lokes is attacking the front door. Pumpkin is on the radiator. Know where the brains are.

I saw on FB that a friend from Tabletalk (not a buffistas) who I hadn't seen since 2002 (she lives in Toronto) was in the town I had just flown to. We ended up having dinner! So weird to think she was my age when we "met", and I was 22. Now I both get why they found me entertaining and also I feel very old. Plus, dinner was deliciousness. And happy hour! Gnocchi with snap peas and bacon, Brussels sprouts and kale, and tagliatelle with shrimp. Plus dessert and a couple drinks...so full.

Mmm, that sounds delicious and fun!
Remind me that I need to try making enoki gnocchi at some point. Just to be able to say it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Wheeee! Up at 4:45 for tornado sirens. I'm a morning person, but that's pushing it. The worst of it went east of me. I hope the Durham-istas are ok.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's amazing, meara -- technology!
I am so tired of tights and boots and warm coats, but it won't get out of the 40s here until Friday, I think.
