Ask not for whom the fire engine wails. It wails for ME. And chainsaw helmets.

An embarrassing tale and some good advice on carbon monoxide detectors from the big boys themselves. ( Learn from my pain, people. )

Oh! I almost forgot my favourite part, though: ( my chainsaw helmet. )

Anyway, my life marched on as usual: gaming on Monday night, dinner with the parents who were in town on Tuesday, a really neat seminar about traditional Japanese conservation pastes and materials on Wednesday evening (yes, it WAS neat, dammit!), an enjoyable get-together on Thursday evening with a friend for an Ugly Betty vs. Supernatural face-off...aaand then spent yesterday surfing. And today we have a youth group dessert potluck, to be followed late this evening by a new BSG episode. Whee!

And for those who care, the latest in my Supernatural slide: rubber bands and flailing. At work.
