Man, the Breeder's Cup is pandemonium.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My parents are now on the hunt for a hotel for over Christmas break. So that's something almost accomplished. I'm trying to draw, but have reached that blank period where I just stare at the not-even-half-done picture with the conviction that anything I do will mess it up.
And I'm realising I should have bought two .3mm mechanical pencils this morning, so I can have one loaded with soft graphite and one with hard all the time, instead of swapping out.
I also need to comb through my (mess of an) apartment to find my ID pass for work and the teensy tiny cap for the teensy tiny flash drive I just bought. Fuckers could be anywhere.
But mostly I want to sleep, and can't.
Isn't?
Man, excellent Classic. A heart stopper for sure. 1 thin head breaks that amazing streak.
Man, Mike Smith says he's a little devastated - and he seems it. (BTW, I love the one name horses - particularly the one syllable names like Blame, Arch, Pluck - it amazes me that people can still find good ones.)
Breeder's Cup:
Man, she was so far back I thought something was wrong with her. That was kind of stressful, and a shame that she lost.
Breeder's Cup: But that is her style. But I guess she was just a little too far back. Was the Chris McCarron giving Mike Smith a hug?
Also, I guess I didn't realize how much Garrett Gomez has been gutting it through the races the past couple of days. I cannot blame (hee) him- he definitely had a good Breeders' Cup.
Is the Breeder's Cup being run by Vince McMahon or something?
Oh man, something spooked the fuck out of Loki and well, at least I now know he knows where he lives. He raced so hard on the sidewalk he tore 4 or 5 of his claws. Poor Lokis. He was utterly terrified, and I have NO IDEA what set it off.
He seems to be recovering fine. Poor baby. He's just been spooky outside today.
I finally roasted most of the vegetables in my house. I'm making some carrot-parsnip soup, and we'll see how that goes. I think I'm going to freeze the beets for now, and still have to figure out the squash.
