All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Sheds have not air conditioning and plumbing.
They can. My shed does not, but my house does not have air conditioning, either. I think about adding plumbing to the shed, but it's lower priority than a lot of other potential projects. It does have electricity, some built in shelves and a workbench (all made of iron, I assume an ironworker lived here at some point, there is a LOT of iron in and around my house). And, I am told, a really high quality cement floor. The ceiling is just tin (or something that looks like tin) but the walls are pretty thick and it stays fairly cool in the summer time. Definitely one of the big reasons we bought this particular house.
I should really confirm that I have clean underwear for tomorrow before I go to bed, but I am very tired. I probably do, right? I'm almost positive.

They really do. And it's amazing how few of them you actually need. I've been living at my sister's house for 3 weeks, and aside from a few toiletries, I've been getting by fine with about 10% of my clothing, and none of my books. (Although I do have my computer, ipod, and cellphone. And my sister has a fully-equipped kitchen.)
I think because I travel so much I recognize how little I "need"...but I still have so much crap.

I got an alert on my phone when I was out this afternoon and didn't make it inside before that one hit. Got completely soaked, but given that it was 90 or 100 something just prior to the storm, I didn't mind that much since I didn't see any of the hail.

I was in CVS waiting out the hail this afternoon. There were enough branches on the sidewalks after that one to make every dog in Edgewater happy. Everyone gets a stick to carry!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My dad had a shed with power and AC. No plumbing, though. He was a rock hound and kept his specimens out there. It may have saved my parents' marriage.

Oh, UPS, why can't you make up your mind? You send me an email telling me my delivery has been rescheduled for tomorrow but update the website to say it is on the truck for delivery today. With the same timestamp.
