Nobody said fly naked, Theo. I hope the delay doesn't last long.

I just washed 7 loads of laundry.

Sometimes I like the laundromat just for the chance to get it all done at once.

An Officer and a Gentleman is on some channel, and I caught it very near the beginning. I haven't seen this movie in years.

Hah--don't take your pants off! Though I have a friend oh insisted on going through in a bikini.

Apparently there was a ground stop at LAX for several hours--hoping my flight I'm sitting on right now still takes off on time, now that it's over!

Nobody said fly naked, Theo.

Some people have totally said fly naked!

Yikes, sarameg!

Ouch, Sheryl. That sucks.

Mammogram accomplished. They have upgraded from film to digital since last time, and, perhaps relatedly, this time was a lot less uncomfortable. It reminds me of yoga class: get into an unnatural position, have someone move your body into the actual correct position, hold it for a few breaths until that someone tells you you can move. The tech showed me the pictures so I could see how much clearer the digital is than the scanned film, pretty impressive.

Hit Trader Joe's after. No artichokes, woes. I will have to make do with asparagus and bok choy.

The actual seeing of the pictures is pretty cool. When I had my ultrasound for what-turned-out-to-be-gastritis, the tech was nice enough to let me see the pictures, and helpfully point out the actual gallbladder, pancreas, and et ceteras.

("Cool!" I said, "I have kidney-shaped kidneys! Who knew?!")

Hee.

So, my father's wigging out again, too bad. I'm pretty sure the doctor at the hospital didn't think they were done adjusting meds yet, so I hope my mother gets in touch with the doctor from the nursing home.... She just said she thinks it's because he's realizing he's not coming home, and I 100% don't think that -- I think it's just his neurons -- so I hope she doesn't spend a lot of time feeling bad about that.

I hope she doesn't too and that the nursing home handles it.

It's fucking balmy out. When I got home, warmer inside than out. Now the reverse it true. Freaking weather.

I'm going to be shopvaccing all night. I swear this leak sprung after the earthquake. And I don't think I can even reach to slather it with sealer (it improved other seams 75%) because it is behind the furnace. I want to build a berm and channels.

I built a berm with wet towels and plastic sheeting. We'll see.

Better article on the collapse (in terms of context and descriptions): [link]

At least I just got 2048 on that stupid game!

Wow, that's nuts!

At least I just got 2048 on that stupid game!

I feel like that's resume-worthy. I've only gotten 1024 once in a while.
