I'm going to Atlanta this weekend.  J, G3, and I are going to see David Sedaris and G3 and I will go for a bike ride.  The rest of the weekend will be improvised on the spot.

TW

Ooooh - have a fabulous time!  Me Talk Pretty One Day is a book that I've read several times - so I'm a tad jealous that you're going to see David Sedaris.   

We have seen him once before.  Some concert goers are always surprised that Sedaris' stories are not all like the Macy's Elf story.  He can be pretty risque but he is always funny. It is my kind of humor.

For the bike ride, the plan is to ride the Silver Comet Trail for a bit on Sunday morning.  Some logistics for bike transport are being worked out.  I think I've got it.  Sandy has to cooperate also.

Somehow I have the feeling that I would enjoy his type of humour - I'll have to look up and see if he's coming to Chicago at all. 

According to the weather people that live in my phone, Sandy is going to be quite pesky to the east coast starting next week, which really isn't very nice. 

I'm not pleased. I started stockpiling ice yesterday. Need to gas up the cars to full today and God help me when I go to the grocery store! I also need to put the lawn furniture in the shed and tie down things like propane tanks, grill, etc. Even if it doesn't hit here, all this crap needs to be done as if it would. Alcohol is in good supply, so that helps

Best to be prepared!  Though didn't you also just find out that your neighbour owns a liquor store? That could help with the booze supply   

I just need to start wearing every piece of winter clothing that I own as the temps are dropping by 20+ degrees.  Ugh!

Teejaay - 2012-10-26 9:07 AM Hi! I slept almost 10 hours. And I'm tired. Weird.

Yay!!  You slept!!! 

Last night was one of the first in AGES that I didn't wake up at 4am for an hour or longer, but I woke up with a headache... I'm trying to get rid of it with coffee.   

I went to bed at 7:30pm. Perhaps it's all the estrogen coursing through my veins.

I really, really, REALLY like the fact that I haven't had that stupid monthly visitor since 2007, but the drugs can have wacky side effects - and hot flashes aren't any fun at all.  Thank little baby swaddling 8lb Jebus I don't get those anymore! 

I've not had a visitor for almost 3 years. And now my ovaries have stopped talking to my brain. I'm gonna give the drugs a try and see if they relieve the awful effects of menopause. My cholesterol, blood pressure, thyroid, skin, hair, weight, sleep.... All of it is off the charts out of whack.

I think I'm lucky in that I didn't have effects for very long at all as I also started drugs almost right away after having all the internal lady-bits removed.  Still, the few effects that I did have weren't fun!  Once the dosage was right though, I haven't had to worry about a thing. 

How long til you get blood results back?

I would love to wear rainboots. But id look silly in them ....in the sand. But why shoud I care? I want rainboots!!!

Do they even sell rainboots in your neck of the woods?  I can't see that you would have much call for them, but if they do sell them in Tuscon, there sure are some cute ones on the market!

Cloudy, temps in the 50s and 60s , 10% chance of rain in Atlanta for the weekend.  Sounds good.

There are multiple weather systems interacting.  I think this is the kind of weather that is hardest to predict.  Large difference in outcome depend on small current differences that are hard to measure.  I would rate the certainty in the CT weather prediction as low.   Anything could happen.  The currently predicted track for the storm heading straight into Delmarva would be very unusual.  Usually storms take a hard right and head toward the north Atlantic this time of year.

In truth, I'd be happier if the weather just didn't get any worse and I didn't have to wear them at all... somehow I don't see that happening.

Oddly. They do. And heavy coats. And scarves and gloves. It's very strange. But ....the stores here carry a large selection of bikinis year round. Right next to the heavy coats.

Very bizarre. 

And I don't know why, but the first time I read the "heavy coats" my poor little pea brain saw it as "heaven coats" and I was wondering what the he!! those would be... do they come with a halo? Absolve the wearer of all their sins?  Give you wings? 

Oh wait, that last one should be a Red Bull coat.

My daughter had a yellow raincoat with the yellow Cape Cod fisherman's hat and galoshes when she worked in New York.  She is about 5'2".  She was so cute and she looked about 10 years old.  She was working for a big financial consulting company at the time. It can be done.
