Today feels like a "run away and join the circus" day. I'm having a real hard time getting started.
Though at least we get to go see Wait Wait Don't Tell Me tonight.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I wasn't able to sleep last night. It's going to be a rough day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, that's fun, Dana!
I'm trying to decide how best to subtly have someone to walk to my out-of-the-office meeting with, because I still feel awkward walking into place alone.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh! Enjoy Wait Wait! One of my favorites.
I got an Ancestry DNA kit and am sending it off today. We know just where Mom came from, but have no clue on Dad. DH has a completely different mix from me, and son's GF has an entirely different mix! So my potential grandchild would be Irish, German, English, Russian, French, Cuban, and Scottish! (and likely a few other varieties)

Thinking about cars from yesterday. There are some cars I don't understand.
The Acura ILX. I've been in one and it really feels like a Honda Civic that just costs a whole lot more.
The entire GMC brand. Why is there a whole brand for trucks and SUVs that look almost exactly like their Chevy counterparts.
The Fiat 500L. Isn't it basically just a less good looking Fiat 500X?
Why does Jeep have the Compass, Patriot, and Renegade SUVs? How many small SUVs does Jeep need to make?
Is Ford ever going to make a new Taurus? It started with an old Volvo platform and hasn't significantly changed in like forever.
How does Mitsubishi's auto division stay in business in the USA? They have a very small stable of uninteresting and old cars.
How does Smart stay in business selling one model that doesn't have rear seat? I don't understand how the Smartcar sells either. Wouldn't something like a Chevy Spark or Toyota Yaris be better in almost every possible way?
Why does Toyota sell a Mazda 2 as a Yaris sedan?
Why does Mini have both the Countryman and the Clubman?
Does Ford have any idea what they are doing with the Lincoln brand?

Jesse I thought you were going to say because you weren't sure where the out of office meeting was!
I had friends over and drank too much wine last night. But it was good

I was double-checking my House rep, and even looking at his picture, you an tell he's an obnoxious old man Republican.

Thrive to spite them
I made an attempt to make calls but it was the same "the voice mailbox is full"

I got a person. For all that it matters. Which is nothing.
I think it's overcast outside, so maybe that explains my mood.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
A shot of Toradol used to work for me sometimes, but the past two times I've needed a steroid pack.
I didn't know steroids were an option for migraines. I'd totally do that. Toradol works 90% of the time, though it usually takes 12-18 hours to really do anything, which always makes me wonder if it's the Toradol or if the migraine would have gone away in that time frame anyway.
