By the way
I dunno if anyone who reads my LJ knows, but what happened to dieting_support? Did it implode while I was away for those couple of months?

And in other news
Baylor might actually follow through on Monday's switchover.
How do I know this? The promotional t-shirts, mugs, name tag holders, bags and pens are starting to arrive. :P
In other work news, our nighttime guy took off on vacation this week, which left my boss and I to take care of his usual stuff. The good news is that despite the chaos of the looming switch over, insanity like doctors deciding to use a certain piece of equipment we have on limited quantities of on every single patient, and general summertime patient madness, the week, thus far, has not been bad at all. And there's only two more days of 'fill in for the night guy' craziness.
Added plus; I'm getting overtime, which I need since this month is 'pay your car insurance' month. Yay! :)

Whee! Tornado! (Part Two)
Yep, we were in the path. Yes, the sirens went off (right about the time the news guy was saying 'this storm and possible tornado will be in the Carrollton area in ten to fifteen minutes).
I'm very proud of Foot and Ula. I was able to herd them out into the living room ahead of time and then grab them both easily, and even though Foot panicked a little when she realized I was going to lock everyone in the bathroom, she didn't hiss, growl, mew, scratch, or bite. She did go hide under the bed for about twenty minutes after I let them out, but she's okay now. I think giving them treats right after I let them out helped.
Only lost power for a grand total of five minutes (three short black outs). All in all, very, very lucky, and just fine. There are several areas that got really torn up, and some of them are still without power, so...(although there's no news of anyone badly hurt or dead yet, so that's a good thing).
Folks to the east that might get it next, be careful, be safe. *hugs* I'll hope it goes past you just as fast and with minimal damage.
And now, I go to bed.
