It's cool and rainy. Squirrels are still insane. I saw one bury a nut in the mop-end of a mopstick I left out on the deck--it just shoved the nut in there, then patted the strands back into place.

I've really hated the last few rounds of Hummer commercials. The ones where the wimps--a man who buys veggies and lets himself be one-upped by the guy buying slabs of ribs, and the woman who lets another woman's kid butt in front of hers in the playground line--get their glands back by buying Hummers. I also thought that the one where the dad and his kids release candle-heated mini-hot air balloons in a desolate wilderness area was kind of irresponsible given the number of wildfires we've had in recent years.

But, I really liked the H3 commercial that I think premiered today. Background music is the theme from The Great Escape. Bunch of guys trying to break out of the office for the weekend. I especially like the gate guard who looks like Steve McQueen and is bouncing a baseball off the inside of his guard shack as the H3 speeds through the gate. Organized insanity--always a hit with me.

Still writing. Closing in on 5000 words so far this weekend. I'd like a few more.

Two and a half weeks to go. And the Incident edits may show up this week just to add to the insanity.
