The subject line's from Foster the People's "Helena Beat," which is currently at the top of my working mix at home.
Things I could have done without this week: dog digestive trouble, I-24 as a parking lot, various aspects of this year's physical (nothing to be alarmed about; it's just Not Fun).
Things that have gone well: other aspects of this year's physical (phlebotomist, vaccinator, and radiology tech all very good).
The comedy that is my life:
(Last Friday, a splotch of correction fluid fell on my knee. I guess it doesn't come off when one keeps falling asleep in the bath instead of scrubbing... *sheepish*)
Also:
* I sowed zinnias in the planter that failed to yield any radishes.
* The asparagus I overcooked tonight is still a decent carrier for leftover aioli.
* The Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup! Seeing snapshots of the celebrations reminded me of being in the city when the Bulls won their first championship. Nashville's where I belong, but I do sometimes miss that Windy City energy.
Over on Twitter, several friends needed a moment -- as did I -- when Toews handed the Cup to Timonen:

The comedy that is my life:
Me to the BYM: So my internist was laughing at me this afternoon, just like you were the other night.
The BYM: That's because you're funny.
Me: Uh-huh. She was tapping my knee to test my reflexes -- and then, just like you, she was like, "Is that ...whiteout?"
The BYM: [snickers]
