Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
("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.

At least I just got 2048 on that stupid game!
Wow, that's nuts!

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

Seriously. I've never gotten higher than the 500-whatever square.
I hope your dad's okay, Jesse.
Hubby made quiche. He's very proud of his quiche, it makes him happy to serve me something that will get me to eat vegetables. I dislike quiche. But I like him. I eat the quiche.
(I am not a fan of cooked eggs on their own. Plus, veggies. Particularly stewed tomatoes. He at least doesn't quibble when I pick out most of the tomatoes.)
I'm not a fan of tomatoes in quiche and I adore quiche.
So more reports of seriously insane flooding coming in. Worried about my vet's office. It's on the Falls. Which overtopped its banks to cover a bridge just a couple hundred yards downstream. OTOH, the tavern that it doesn't* share a parking lot with seems to be ok, so...
I am SO grateful to be living on the top of Capitol Hill and that the years long leak in my ceiling has been fixed...at least for the moment.
This rain is no joke.
A friend on facebook posted a picture of a Metro train at one of the above-ground stations. The water invaded the train car to a depth of more than an inch.
Truly incredible.
