I just went through my mail-in ballot choices, and I was sorely tempted to dismiss one of the candidates because in her picture she's wearing a horrible teal pleated-rayon dress with a neckbow that was giving me traumatic flashbacks. Then I read her write-up, and she's actually one of the more sensible ones. Still, her fashion sense makes me cringe. #shallowvoter

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats, Nora and Tom!!
I always think of Sophia when this happens: I had a lot of beets for dinner last night and definitely would have thought I was dying this morning if I didn't remember!
In other news, is anything better than getting the flight check-in notice for vacation??

Austin is pretty great.

Our wings are not tired.
Congrats on the move, Nora.

That is a good one for sure.
Tired this morning from staying up past my bedtime to watch debates, and will do it again tonight. I have thoughts, but they are still napping.

This can happen with red velvet cake, too.

I didn't watch. I could come up with thoughts, but their value would be very suspect.

Vortex, at this point it looks like we'll just miss you in New Orleans. :-(

How is New Orleans doing? There was a lot of news about the potential for massive flooding, but I never heard much about it after that. I'm hoping that means things weren't too bad.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It was fine. I think the route of the storm changed some, and the rain wasn't as heavy as predicted.

That's good to hear.
