Presumably that's the sensible course, but this is Texas. (Also, the alligators may be in unexpected places, like streets.)
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
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.
I think that if I saw any alligators even if there *weren't* any flooding, I wouldn't mess with them. Just to be sure.
This made me laugh SO HARD.
Too bad "don't mess with alligators" doesn't rhyme
Timelies all!
The power went out here at some point last night, and was out for long enough to mess up my alarm clock, so I overslept. I should have realized something was wrong when I looked at my clock the first time Nova woke me up, it read 3:00, but the sun was out. Instead I went back to sleep. Ugh.
Oh god, I just remembered the flash flood warning that made my phone go nuts after 11 last night. WTF.
FUCKING KID PUKED IN THE FUCKING POOL AGAIN.
Also, this is probably NOT THE FUCKING LOAD OF HORSESHIT YOU FUCKING WANT TO SEND TO ME TODAY, VERIZON:

Filling out a job application, I almost accidentally put my major as "Liveral Arts". Which would be awesome if I were applying for a job with Hannibal Lecter.
Puke in the pool? EW.
I gave up and went home with my work computer. So now I'm working and waiting for a period break in this Blackhawks game to make dinner. And the Blackhawks game is super not relaxing because if they lose tonight, they're out of the playoffs.
High of 52 today.
Man, we got out in the nick of time!
Hey, speaking of recent Jeopardy champions, here's a great thing about the UCSB shooter from Arthur Chu
That was awesome.
The news is warning that if you see any alligators around thanks to the flooding, not to mess with them. Or snakes.
That seems about right.
We don't open till 8. We make the appointments for 7:45 because no one shows up on time. I don't know if the doctor will be here right at 8.
Wait, are you in New Orleans? That seems more New Orleans-esque than Utah.
Apparently I have reached the rage end of my rope.
Plumber is on his way. I've warned and apologized to the neighbor who might be home and requested he inform me of his libations of choice. Thankfully Anna is not home.
I predict the cats will go into hiding. I might go hide with them at Anna's.
