today I am

Headachey. Not sure if it's because I was up too late last night and then awakened too early because of a scheduled power outage that made our little door alarm go beepedty beep beep at 5:30am and then silenced everything around us in an ominous fashion, or if my old fillings are starting to leach heavy metals into my mouth. My teeth do feel kind of sensitive, but I don't know if it's because the weather's getting colder or if it's just because when you start to think about your teeth then you can't NOT think about your teeth, or if the fillings really do need replacing. It's been quite a while for those fillings.

Honestly, I think I'm just having one of those not-enough-sleep days. It's supposed to snow tomorrow so the barometric pressure is probably fluctuating wildly, everything's staticy and dry, who knows.

Sad because Spain died. He was one of my favorite UG cartoonists; a tough, no-nonsense get-it-done kinda guy who defied the effete hippy stereotype, channelling EC comics, Lovecraft, Big Daddy Roth, Jack Kirby, and Karl Marx in equal amounts.
