Well, I've started packing for the trip back to Seattle. I've done everything I wanted to. And most importantly, done everything I needed to with my parents.

For the first time in a long time, I feel I'm going home with nothing left for me to do when I come back. And I will be back. April I'm hoping.

@socketwench - One of my issues with both of those movies is how "clinical" they feel. Andromeda Strain is the keast action packed thriller I've ever seen. I kept watching more out of curiosity of what was going on versus out of a sense of fear or wonder.

Same with Colossus, although it dies have a few moments of shock and intensity Andromeda doesn't.

The good news is that I can get good fajitas tacos in Washington. They're just triple the price, and not convenient to get to-go....

Dear Pacific Northwest,

After three weeks in Texas, I'm noticing a distinct lack of cream gravy, forty-four ounce drinks, Texas toast and guacamole enhancements in your drive-through restaurants. Please rectify this.

I am not a crackpot.

Sigh.

Some people will never understand that it's their own stupid actions hurting themselves.

Scratching as many itches as I can before I leave on Sunday.

Is it really that easy to get a writing job on Saturday Night Live?

@spottyfox - right there with you....

While I hate having to cancel on my friends, I'll also super spooked as mom's car battery has just up and died twice on us (likely not due to the accident today, that was super minor). I'm fairly worried about it doing that out in the country, or being stuck at a friend's late at night.

Got the car started, but the guy who jumped it says the battery is just straight up dead, not to turn it off or the car won't restart. So we're calling it a day.

Whose got two thumbs, got into a fender bender and now theIr car won't start and is stuck in a parking lot in high humidity and heat while waiting for a jump or a tow and really needs to pee?

THIS GAL!
