The state of California would have kittens over my shed. It's a shed. If it falls over in an earthquake, I think I'll get over it.

I got an on-body injector on my belly that's currently giving me a neulasta shot to build up my white blood cells. It's weird. How does the neulasta box actually work? I've seen the ads, but can't figure it out. Does it poke you when they affix it to you? Is it more like a patch? Also, and more importantly: keep kicking ass

Spent the evening down at the Glenlea Observatory south of Winnipeg. Got to see Saturn, rings and all, through two different telescopes, and then we sat back and played "Spot the Meteor" because the Perseid meteor shower was on. Various people (self included) would call out whenever we saw something, and our 1-hour count was 45 Perseids and a handful of other meteors coming from other directions.

The State of California had a butt-clench after the '94 Northridge earthquake, and the building code got way "upgraded".
