I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Today was the only day this week that I did not take umbrellas, only day it has rained on the way home.

Anyhoo mac and I sang "rain rain go away" and mac even yelled a few times at the sky to "just stop it".

NO idea why it appears to be bleeding over to you.

Nah, I think it comes as a package deal with the whole deadline notion. Oh, well. We can share. I wish I could share my cookies with you, too, at least.

This made my day middle-of-the-night better. I'm sorry it had to be on the expanse of you getting wet, but still. Thank you.

Yeah, why doesn't the sky listen to mac?

This is charming: [link] ETA: the audio slideshow linked to it is neat too. The cyclist is a great narrator.

So, the let's-do-the-exact-same-thing-I'm-not-kidding-it-was-exactly-the-same-from-scratch thing seems to begin to work. So far, tfu tfu, things seem to talk to each other, when I have to use three (!) different computers in order to take the part-which-works in each one of them.

One small step, one giant leap, and all that.

Phew. A mini-phew.

(Right before clicking "post" I realized - is there anywhere else where they say "tfu tfu", against the "evil eye"?)

I hadn't heard that before! The neck of the woods I grew up in, it was sign of the cross (large catholic population.) Probably less common a habit in Israel...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I will choose a different superstition and knock on wood for Nilly.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

{{{Nilly}}} Technology ~ma to you, darlin'. Computers need to be nicer to you.

For a funny, here's my where I found my cat yesterday when I needed to take him to the vet: [link]

Just measured mac again, half an inch since end of May. His middle name is not legally added yet, maybe I should make it weed.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Puppy Picspam is killing me dead.

Heehee! His limbs are already so long! Is he going to be a tall one?
