At least around here one would be hard put to get a out of control fire going. We haven't had rain in 4 or 5 days but the local creek still hasn't found its way back into its normal banks in a lot of places and everything is still wet from the torrents we had a week and half ago. Of course over in MI it could be a different story.

It's dryer here. Not too dry, I think, but we haven't had much rain in a while. Which we're supposed to get starting tomorrow, but don't have today!

btw... could i ask a huge massive favor and have you tape bsg this friday for me? scott will be coming over, but i've got a going away party for 3 of my coworkers (do you notice a trend at my workplace? ;) to answer your comment from my post about the interview, yes, the few people i met seem nice, particularly the one assistant i met and complimented on her design of the clinic's website :)

No problem!

I wonder if your boss will get a clue given how many people are leaving?

given the fact that his BEST receptionist is leaving, i highly doubt it (she was working there before i started). he seriously doesn't recognize a good thing when he has it.

get this: the new dr he hired? yeah, she hasn't even GRADUATED VET SCHOOL YET. (i think she graduates in may)

Technomancy?

Could apply to all technologically based methods of divination:
- iPod on shuffle
- Search string + the "I'm feeling lucky" Google button
- the Nth movie in your Netflix queue
