vacation is over

I guess vacation is over. You know the routine -- too busy to write -- so I'll spare you.

Random discovery of the day: Levon Helm plays Loretta Lynn's dad in Coal Miner's Daughter. (I love Levon.)

Pervasive thought of the day: it's November 30 and it's in the 70's. Weathermen should not be talking about how beautiful it is. They should be talking about the fact that we're going to slowly cook, drown or die of thirst -- and it's all our damn fault. Just ask Al.

Best surprise of the day: my holiday present from Maker's Mark.

Funny - it's unseasonably frigid here in L.A., and has been for about a week. It's been about 55 in the daytime. We're actually running our heater quite a bit.

All unseasonal weather -- all weather weirdness -- is freaking me out. The storms that are heading east -- where it goes from 80 degrees to 30 degrees in one day? That is not a good sign . . .

yeah. it's been like that here too. l.a. weather, since the heat wave ended, has been a bit like the proverbial new england weather. this fall, we had a lot of runs of 2-3 days of 80+, then a sudden cold day. but now it's just really frigid and smells like snow outside. and then they tell us it'll be 75 tomorrow.
