Arrrrgh, tornadoes. Well, that at least explains why it was EIGHTY DEGREES the other day. In fact, things are just going from bad to worse--the entire roof has to be replaced now (which, fortunately, we can have done for $500 total, what with insurance), and the pool liner very likely will have to be replaced as well. Oh, and the air conditioning switch, whatever precisely that is, will also cost $500. We discovered this when the downstairs AC went dead over the weekend, prompting my mother to invoke the service contract. On a Sunday, no less. So they came out that day, and fixed it free of charge--it's just that replacement parts aren't included in that. There's probably some other calamity I've (blessedly) forgotten, as well. Sigh.

And this won't mean anything to anyone but the BPALers, but I have now started wearing High John the Conqueror for reasons that will be apparent if you're familiar with it at all.

And for those of you worried about the linkspam, it--and dailydigestnews--is coming back. I've just got such a pileup at this point that I'm going to have to sit down and actually sort it out, and I have some pressing things I have to take care of before I can do that.

Current Nancy Drew: The Clue/Mystery/Secret of the Tolling Bell. It's on my bed and I can't see the title from here. Pick one.
