Witch bitch is witch?
Oct. 27th, 2009 10:03 pmNo more complaining, as in some earlier laments that some of you, here and elsewhere, got to see. Among other things that I'm now happy to be happy for:
* Dayum, it's autumn. I LOVE this weather! The trees here are in an awesome gorgeosity of color, even though it's still warm enough to have had our windows open most of this week, and over the next three days I'm going to get to see those trees shift ever so slightly into reverse as I head south.
* South, not nearly as much east now. Both of my detour stops are now off, so I'll now be nowhere near Noo Yawk or Joisey, instead taking a straight shot down the Northeast Extension to Philly that should have me in Baltimore before rush hour on Thursday. Whenever and wherever the hell their rush hour is.
* This morning's computer problems were merely supersized files being sent to me that were taking longer than expected to open.
* We dodged a major home improvement emergency over the weekend which had me seriously stressing into first thing Monday morning.
* I'm now actually getting to listen to the back catalog of Whadya Know episodes that a Friend was kind enough to convert and turn into a podcast feed. Once you download the episodes, you have to manually add the mp3s to your iTunes library, but once you do that they sync to the phone just fine and play through the podcast section like any other. The last one he converted was especially funny, including an extended chat with the world's foremost dinosaur veterinarian, but also this episode's Thanks For The Memos segment. It's from the caretaker of a Buddhist temple, in which he rants against his fellow Zenners about their compliance with the facility's recycling procedures: Why is that so fucking hard?, he contemplates. File this one under "Don't make me achieve higher consciousness. You wouldn't like me when I'm achieving higher consciousness."
* It's getting into High Silly Season here, between Halloween and political campaigns. On the former front, a newly-built dental building on Sheridan Drive is advertising for the little cavity-crunchers with a whole mess of Burma Shave-style signs on the median of the highway reading, "GOT CANDY?" Meanwhile, our Republican county executive, actually touted as a possible statewide candidate for governor, got caught referring to the Orthodox Jewish speaker of our state legislature as being "the antichrist." Yeah, that'll play well in Crown Heights.
* Family tomorrow night, dear friend the next, home to my most beloveds of all the night after that. Can you get any better over three days?
My computer will be staying home, while I attempt to get an exterior issue fixed on Eleanor's at my first stop of the trip. So most of you, I won't be in touch with until the weekend. Bee-have, baybees:)
