[373] let them leave you up in the air, let them brush your rock and roll hair

Was supposed to go visit my grandmother today, but my mom wasn't feeling up to it, so we just ordered pizza and will go after mom gets off work tomorrow instead. Whatever, all days are the same to me, anyway!

Twisters was fun as hell. Proper blockbuster bullshit. And it's even making money! Cinema lives!!!

Still smoky, and I am starting to miss the sun a bit, but at least it's still warm. Summer will be over before I know it, so I takes what I can gets. Still coughing, because I'm incapable of just getting over minor illnesses without weeks of lingering misery. My ears keep popping for some reason.

Watching Slammiversary, and then... we'll see. I napped copiously in the afternoon after catching a bunch of Tynamos, so it should be a late night for me. Maybe I will make KD and take a nice, long bath.
