What is even happening?

Now they're singing John Denver's "Country Roads."

I love webcams. I cycle through a Times Square and a French Quarter cam regularly. I'm starting to recognize the people who work in that section of the Quarter.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The Dublin cam now just shows some employees mopping up.

I still think this story belonging This American Life

HAH. Which is also a very old Buffista injoke, if you think about it...

I'm so sad about Bourdain, he seemed like such a cool guy. There was a long New Yorker article about him recently where he talked about the depression, but it seemed like it was under control. OTOH, I guess we all know how fast that can change. Damn it.

Had a nice day off: went for a long run in the woods, got my teeth cleaned (OK less fun but my dentist says everything looks good), had lunch with a friend, took a long nap, and watched the Warriors win the NBA championship. Now I'm home and happily the fireworks have stopped, so the dog is not anxious.

Tomorrow we go see Oceans 8, and on Sunday I take the dog to her first ever agility competition! So excite.

I got eight hours straight sleep for two nights in a row. And I love EVERYONE in this BAR!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My DH was diagnosed with diabetes a couple of weeks ago and, since I basically eat what he eats, plus more candy, I went in to be tested last week. I was CONVINCED I must also have it. Got the results and I am fine! Also had good cholesterol, which was another pleasant surprise. On top of that, I may have a job interview on Tuesday. So, Friday was a good day in Scrappyland.

Our wings are not tired.

Excellent! Both Calli's sleep and Scrappy's blood!

I am looking forward to hearing about the agility event, Consuela.

Taking a momentary break from the cooking and cleaning. Really want to nap, but that's not happening.

Today's agility class was cancelled, so I'm actually doing things around the house. ...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The pub's webcam also has a webcam set up outside: [link] and we've been watching it for the last half hour like it's TV. We've seen like 7 bachelorette parties in 30 minutes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to the big downtown multiplex this morning, and man, I am reminded why I don't usually go there. Everything is a zillion dollars (but I had a free pass and also some money on a gift card), they don't have the reclining seats, the previews were terrible and took forever, AND the popcorn and soda weren't as good as at either of my more local independent places.

But you know, I still like being at the movies more than not being at the movies.
