Fwoosh!

Okay, there are some huge fires about 5 miles away from here, and the santa ana winds are expected to be 35mph sustained and up to 75mph gusts. There's a chance we'll have to evacuate if the winds push it forward. I am not looking forward to possibly having to jam my life into my new beetle and high-tail it out of here. I've been thinking what I need to take, and I think I have the list down.

2 guitars and 1 bass, computer, external hard drive, iPod, camera, wiis, DS, phone, dad's recipes.

The hardest part is going to be getting the cats into the car. They're... not outside cats. And one doesn't like being picked up at ALL.

I'm a bit anxious, if you can't tell. I'm going to try to sleep now.

Beard-death experience

I've got about 3 months worth of beard growth going for me right now, and I have to say, I like it. The only problem I have with it is that the moustache is getting in my mouth when I eat things, and getting ketchup and/or other condiments in it when I eat things with those on it. This gets annoying after a while. I think I will trim the moustache.

Back to the Future

Thursday, I was feeling great. More energy, happy attitude, the works. I was finally starting to feel the effects of eating healthy, and all was good. I was considering moving around the furniture in my bedroom the next day, even.

On Friday, my back went out after I woke up. Naturally, this was very, very painful. It had done this once before with this particular spot in my back, and I didn't quite recall how I got rid of the pain. By the time I woke up, my doctor was already out of the office for the half-day that Fridays are, so that was out of the question.

I put a heating pad on it and Mom brought me some aleve and some excedrin back and body ache. Let me tell you, the combination of the heat and the aleve made it completely bearable, and the pain was practically gone by this morning.

I'm back to feeling good again, and I hope that feeling lasts through the week. I could use it.

Also, I've gone down a shirt size already, and it's been about a month since I saw the nutritionist. Awesome. Awesome to the MAX.
