Only 30 pages into Olivie Blake’s Girl Dinner and I already know I’m going to love it because of this line. “The house itself was Georgian, brick with regal front columns, like a sex dream authored by Jane Austen, on drugs.”

I was supposed to see Alex Warren last night but my body and autoimmune issues collaborated against me. There’s many times I’ve been mad at my body but last night is definitely up there on the list. I’m so bummed.

There are very few times where my intense dislike of green leafy things, especially herbs, works in my favor. But at least I’m fairly confident I won’t get cyclospora.

When you grow up in a beach town, 4th of July rules stick with you for life. All my errands were done by Tuesday. I don’t have to work so I’m not going anywhere for the rest of the weekend. No crowds. No stupid people.

High school. Me teenybopper. My best guy friend heavy metal. We would each pick a cd, throw it into the changer, press shuffle. I introduced him to NSYNC, he introduced me to Black Sabbath. We lost him a few years ago. I hope he got a kick out of me singing along to Changes at Yungblud tonight.

Yesterday was my birthday. Which also means it’s been 20 years since my Celiac diagnosis. It’s also Celiac Awareness Month & there’s been some negative comments about it this month. Listen, if I could eat the gluten, I would. But no one wants to be around me if I eat gluten. Not even Beau.

I love when shows feature areas impacted by disasters and share in the community recovery. Top Chef did that this week in Asheville; an area physically devastated by Hurricane Helene but the spirit is still so so strong. #topchef #community Could’ve done without the danger noodle though.

On April 12, 2018, police officer Sean Gannon, was killed serving a warrant & his K9, Nero, was seriously injured. With existing policy Nero could not be life flighted for care. Massachusetts passed a law changing that & I’m thrilled to see other states doing the same. www.wusa9.com/article/news...

Origin story time. The first Erik Larson book I read was Isaac’s Storm. My grandpa gave it to me the year it released. And I realized I could combine my love of weather and history. This started my path to being a hazards and disaster historian. I got to meet him recently and had him sign that book

I’m reading a 4-book series. Super easy quick reads. Just got to the last book - 9 pages in - and the author has changed the name of a character. Not even like to a nickname, but to a completely unrelated different name. If it wasn’t the last book, I would’ve tossed the whole series aside. WTF
