Things I have learned today...

1. I have been "saving" drafts of my papers on the PC by pressing the wrong button. S. discovered random word of "sand" in my papers-- apparently on PC is is CTRL + S, not Command + S.... oops. FAIL.

2. Even a crappy bed right next to the highway is 1000 x better than sleeping on the floor of my office. I have internet... and a BED... I can even watch NCIS while I work!

3. Did you know that last year there were 9 fires in Northern California and 6 828 fires in the Southeast? The acre difference? 4 acres in Northern California and 104 414 acres in the southeast. Wow. I mean, of course, a lot of that was because we do a lot of prescibed burning here, but I never realized the discrepancy.

4. I think I have confirmed that I am able to eat soy sauce with no consequence! I have been reading much more about the iGa-1 test, too, and it doesn't turn out that it is a very diagnostic type of test... "not much power" as dr. R would say. I have discovered that as long as I let no taste that is sweet into my mouth (except, for some reason, immediately after a run or when i first wake up), my stomach issues are almost non existent. But sweet taste, for some reason, screws everything up.... this is very exciting.

5. No motorcycle classes required for motorcycle liscenses in OR! Excitement.

Well, back to studying for the big D and watching the NCIS marathon in the background on the television in here (makes staying alone a little less scary to have it on, actually! <-- insert wussy side of K here).

  1. I'll protect you!!

    Or at least, I would, if I didn't live 2000 miles away. Crud. Well, I'll protect you -- for a short period of time -- when I come to visit next week!

    Somehow, I feel like my pledge lacks a certain something...

  3. Yeah, I mean, I got your back and everything, but somehow you don't strike me as needing to be protected...

    Does the idea involve eating shrimp? :)
