It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

Do you have to go to areas likely to be flooded, Connie?

Most of the people who are going to be affected by flooding are the ones that built new houses right near the rivers and streams because we live in a desert and we don't have to worry about water--until we get heavy, late snow and the dams have to release water to make room in the reservoirs.

If I were actually drug-seeking, I would be set.

Hubby used to joke about taking his extra bottles of drugs to the high schools and make enough to pay off the medical bills. I pointed out that with our luck he'd find the student that was a narc and he'd go to jail.

Hey, that's great, Dana! Here's to continued good healing.

Ice cream cake update: the brownie bottom was dumb. I mean, it was delicious, but it stayed frozen way longer than the ice cream, and the proportions were kind of off. Next time I would try the pound cake, and probably more ice cream to cake. Or do Sue's ice cream lemon meringue!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks for passing on your hard-won brownie ice cream cake wisdom, Jesse.

Hooray for successful surgery! Easy~recovery~ma.

Despite my doubts last night, I am successfully en route to Alask! Well, at least as far as airport, that counts as en route, right?

The ice cream pie I made yesterday went over quite well (Oreo cookie crust, cookies and cream ice cream layered with crushed thin mints, Andes candies on top, all at the request of the birthday girl).

Now trying to convince myself to put real clothes on and go to a friend's BBQ. But I don't wanna get off the couch.

whoot, Alaska! Eat some great salmon, and say hello to the vanishing glaciers!

I ran the dog, ate breakfast, and went to dog training, which was HELLA hot. We were all completely wilted and the dogs kept hiding in the shade. Came home, ate some protein, and collapsed into a much longer nap than I intended to.

But now I am rested and showered, and I'm going to drop off a check as a deposit on my new car, and go see Monsoon Wedding. Fun!

I'm going there later this summer! Whole family. Up to Denali Nat'l Park, then south to Chugach & Kenai Fjords.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes! Enjoy!

I have had a lazy day. Super rare so almost guilt free. I think doing the dishes was the only thing productive. I read and napped and played on my computer. I should do this again tomorrow!

I acted like my mother's partner at dinner with two couple friends of theirs, and it was actually really nice.
