Oh hey, is anyone in touch with John H? I'm sure it's him on this week's Extra Hot Great!
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WOW THAT WAS EXCITING!
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU HAD TWO-INCH HAIL POUNDING ON THE DOOR, HUH?!

Yikes, so Jim Butcher (of Dresden Files fame) is apparently spouting off about how social distancing isn't making any difference? Argh.

Two inch hail?? Yikes!!!
Also, glad I'm not completely nuts on the pots/bowls/dishwasher thing. I ended up hand washing them while I did some of my own.
Then two friends came over to say bye—they're moving to Michigan in two weeks and I'm going to miss them so much—and one of them is pregnant so I'm so sad I won't get to see the baby and hang out with her and so on. Such a bummer that we didn't get to properly celebrate their last few months in town! (They're both doctors and have been v busy, even if we didn't have to distance)

Yeah, I was talking to Mom on the phone when I started hearing something going BONG off the carport outside. So I open the door and find a few chunks of brussels-sprout-size ice in the yard. I grab one and take a picture for Mom and we keep talking.
A few minutes later I realize it's gotten REALLY LOUD outside, so I stick my head out again. Not only is there so much hail coming down it's starting to fill the yard, but the wind is so strong it's pushing the hail in through the door.
So I slam it closed and we just listen to it going BAM BAM BAM for a while. luckily there doesn't seem to be any damage to the windows or the cars outside.

To think that I was so impressed when some quarter-sized hail fell here a couple years ago!

My hair salon is opening on Monday! I'm about (checks calendar) 6 months overdue for a trim, and actually I'm wanting to go significantly shorter than chin length this time, because my hair gets tangled in the masks and all. So we'll see how soon the magic happens, since there are a lot of customers ahead of me!

Almost 2 months on the job and I am attending my new employee orientation. I am hoping with the ramp up of online training this delayed scheduling can be something addressed in our offices. I was originally scheduled for sometime in June, so this is actually an improvement.
Meanwhile, you can see how much I am paying attention.
Rainy day here and I just want to go to bed.

I'm curious how Trump's new executive order will play out. If it holds up, it could have a really chilling effect on the Internet at large. Might even effect the new Buffista site.
