Strange coincidences

I've had a lot of those this year. I'm not sure what it means. Today's was I found THe Crow with Brandon Lee on Ovation last night. I haven't seen that in forever (okay I own it but that disc hasn't been in the machine in years) and then today Mom asked me to clean off a shelf in my closet and take that crap with me to OH to either keep or sell and up there was a bound version of The Crow autographed and with a cd full of music J O'Barr wrote. I haven't seen that in, god nearly 25 years. I put it in a box and brought it here when I left Cleveland after graduating med school and it's been in that closet ever since. That's a bit shameful.

Mom of course says look it up on ebay and sell it. As if I'm selling my Crow stuff. I did look it up. Lots of stuff in the 100$ and up range but who knows if anyone is buying.

I'm heading back to OH to interview those candidates. Please send me some good wishes. This could be a bad bad week.

Every idiot in Ohio was on the road

From the morons driving 45 in a 70 mph zone on I-70, to the person coming up the southbound lane into traffic in Steubenville (I know why he was doing it. That is usually a northbound lane but it's closed because the ramp onto 22/30 to Pittsburgh is closed and the damn detour is like 8 miles long and I bet all the locals cut that lane and go around the barrier because this is like the third time for this), to the people who kept randomly pulling out in front of me and going slow. For the love of God if you're going to pull out in front of me go FAST.

I'm no longer going to Gettysburgh on the way back from Rhode Island. I decided to fly. It's a 9 hour drive even without stopping. It would probably take me 12. So I'm going to fly there (Yes Mom I see United is cheaper than Southwest but those people are horrible) and I'll be renting a car.

BUT it's through expedia and literally half the cost of getting it direct. So everyone cross your fingers for me (since expedia is another one selling you stuff and then saying we're not liable if the other party backs out).

I made it to OH fine. It's actually a beautiful day. I have the windows on and my 80 year old Westinghouse fan going.

I'll probably do my writerly ways tomorrow as I still have a lot of unpacking to do and I'm tired.
