more fun with fire

Another wildfire, this time with a KCAL9 news link. The smoke from this one looked bigger, even though it was farther away.
and there goes that one

The fact that I went about exactly a week without posting should tell you about what kind of week it was. It really feels like I just wrote that last post, and yet it was a good 7 days ago. Crazy. I have a job interview tomorrow. Details are contingent on how it goes...
ahhh the helicoptors

So it's a crappy picture, but this is the kind of entertainment we get here in south central. Yes, that's a helicoptor with a spotlight. Yes, it's LAPD. We think it was breaking up some type of party, because it kept circling a house on the next block. While the helicoptor was circling, a limo pulled in to (most likely) pick someone up.

I'm trying to get a hold of the USC Student Health Insurance Office to figure out why our vision care provider doesn't have me in their system. TO start off with, the number for the office connects me to a generic USC menu ("Press 1 for admissions," etc). Not a big deal... Hit 0, get the operator, get transferred... It rings for a bit and then I find out I can't leave a message because "the mailbox is full, please enter another extension." Oh, great. That sures seems like the way to run a system.

Gang of Song (featuring Jeremy Toback and Julian Coryell among others) will again be at the knit this Friday (the 13th). Show starts at (or around) 8pm. I loved the last show, and plan to be at this one as well.
