Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Do we know what time either the game starts or the televised festivities start? I ought to call my parents today but I suspect interrupting football would be rude.

Kickoff is supposed to be at 6:30 EST, but I'm pretty sure the festivities started broadcasting sometime this past week.

Later this evening it will be then. Which will now entail me admitting to them that I'm entirely disinterested in the game. I'm going to Powell's instead. Commercials will be online if there is anything spectacular.

Earlier there was a moment of panic at my house when we scrolled through the TiVo listings to find Animal Planet...and it didn't come in!! But then we found another channel of Animal planet that did come in. Whew! Crisis averted!

My sister called this afternoon to tell me that my dad's boss (and owner of the company dad works for) died suddenly last night. Now, I hated the man because he was a raging asshole, so I'm not upset, just shocked. I'm more worried about how my dad's taking it since he's known his boss for 40 years (not so good, I think), and if he'll have a job once his boss's equally horrible children take over the company.

My upstairs neighbors in one apartment were three elderly people. One of them -- perhaps they took shifts -- was rocking a rocker during the wee hours almost every night. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.

Man, now that I think about it, if I swapped some genders around I could totally have the plot of a Harlequin romance with all this drama.

Punishingly Intricate
I lived beneath a family in SF that I swear moved all their furniture EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. After I moved out I swore I'd never live below anyone ever again. And then I had a couple of recently graduated frat boys living below me in Greensboro and I swore I'd never live above anyone ever again. Actually the boys were sweet and did cut down on their late night midweek partying after I got on their case about it.
Anyway I'm very lucky here with the thick stone walls and a quiet single lady (and occasionally barky dog) on one side and noone on the other for now. My neighbor moved out because he got married and his wife didn't want to live there. This was last summer and just this week guys have been working on it getting it ready to sell, I guess. They totally cleaned out his stupid overgrown yard and now I can see backing out of our parking pad! And I'm less scared about rats lurking. But I'm worried about new people moving in! What if they are loud?!
