A nice orange kitten to keep you company over night. Finally got home from the music setup at church, but I have to get another load of wash in the dryer before I go to bed.

The cause of an early morning fire north of San Diego was an electrocuted bird falling from an active power line
A bird carrying a snake in its talons struck power lines north of San Diego, sparking a hillside fire just west of The Merge.
San Diego Police arrived to the location on Dunhill Street near the intersection of Interstates 5 and 805 just before 6 a.m.
Flames were burning very close to businesses including the General Atomics building, officials said.
Officers called in San Diego Fire-Rescue crews who contained the fire within an hour.
Fire officials initially told NBC 7 a bird with a snake in its mouth was electrocuted on a power line and fell to the ground, sparking the fire. A photo released by officials later shows the snake in the hawk's grasp.
"A hawk that hit the high voltage power line, caught fire, and fell to the ground," SD Fire-Rescue spokesperson Lee Swanson said in a written release.
There were no structures damaged and no evacuations ordered.
This area of San Diego is home to many companies in the region's biochemical industry.
Well, give it a try another day.
I can’t imagine performing it without doing it as a duet.
Still, I presume the reaction was puzzled amusement.

Ah, yes...a respite from the monsoons.
And by the way: HAPPY STATEHOOD DAY, UTAH!
I think astonishment at the high notes was the main result.
I used to have some Utah Statehood stamps.

I was looking for the Utah Message board but I don’t know how to get there. *sigh*

From the account screen, go to “My Locale,” 4th item down, and set your locale to Utah.
If it’s an active board, I’m sure they won’t mind if a former resident chats, too. Anoreth is still on the NC board, and so is a former resident who now alternates between Florida and Colombia.
Neat pictures! You could go boating at Lake Las Vegas.
And some people probably do! Though during the monsoons, the lake is often closed because of debris from the flash floods.
I love Nevada. It’s really quite diverse!

I forgot to say, after you set your locale to Utah, a Utah flag will appear on the top left of your profile page. Click on the flag, and you’re at the state forum.

OPD: Show My Good Side
Another “true” story from the OPD! Filmed on location with the astronauts of law enforcement, as it happens!
Not really
I don’t see why it would be a big problem for someone to set the thermostat manually, jeesh
Never been to Grand Rapids, MI have ya??
I have no idea why I’m awake. But then I have no idea why I didn’t sleep last night.
I need to get some Ibuprofen and my prescription but I can’t get either, let along both.
Maybe that’s why I was awake.
I’m going to have a breathing treatment.
Good luck with breathing. I seem to be out of Ibuprofen, too. I was looking for some earlier this week as a change from Naproxen.
