Are you ready to go back to the island?

In preparation for the fourth season of LOST premiering tomorrow night, if you haven’t seen this already, I suggest you catch up with LOST right now via this brilliantly clever video:

LOST in 8:15

Jack is a doctor. He has a compulsive urge to fix things.
On the first night there is a monster in the jungle.
There’s other weird stuff too. Like polar bears.

Heh.

Holy crap, the weather in Iowa has lost its ever-loving mind!

This is a true statement, I am not exaggerating for effect:

When I drove home from work yesterday, one of the various business clock/thermometers I pass by read 56 degrees.
Today, at basically the same time of day, that same thermometer read 0.

the reports of my demise…

Yes, Jenniffer, I am alive. I’m currently sitting in the airport in Columbus, Ohio waiting to see when/if I am going to get out of here tonight. I’ve been here since Sunday night for MySQL training for work. Four full days of classes along with attending the worst loss in Iowa basketball in the last thirteen years tends to leave a person a bit drained. Dude, we’ve got problems on the court.

I know I totally fell off the map after my good blogging in November and Mac’s illness. I was pretty much completely consumed with going to work and coming home and staring at my cat. Then I was knitting. Then it was Christmas. And now its January. Yikes.

Mac is much improved. She’s got a heart condition and is on various meds, but she seems to be doing fine for her advanced age. All the vets (yes, she’s seen all five) at Bright Eyes & Bushy Tails were really wonderful and got her and me through many nights of panic. I’m sure she’s curled up asleep on her heating pad on her side of the bed right now.

I wish I was there too. I’m so tired. The hotel bed was comfortable, but I miss my own pillow after two or three nights.

I need to wrap this up and deal with what the flight status is. Here’s a cute, if somewhat blurry picture of Mac taken recently:

Mac’s tongue

Also, my camera is barely holding together these days. I have to be like the other cool kids and upgrade after/if I get a tax return.
