Hungry. I made Saltimbocca Alla Romana last night, but didn't eat much of it. I think I'll raid the leftovers, and see if that helps me get a little more sleep.

Weird start to the day here. Got a message from the school that there were some threats being made and that they were confident in the safety of the school, but the wife kept the kids home anyways. According to the kids who have friends that did go, it was some middle schooler who said some things because they were upset about a breakup. So I'm guessing the actual threat has been nullified.

Also found out yesterday that our trip to Amish country with the in-laws has been changed and now coincides with the CF trip, so that's off. But now that the date has changed, it opens up the weekend that Nate had asked me about going to Indy to watch the Browns against the Colts. Should be fun, meeting up with an old work buddy of ours that moved to St Louis a few years back and will be meeting us there.

I'm trying not to think of it because I'm hungry and on a diet.
Are you eating it cold?

Indeed. They always have a couple of the puzzles have what sounds like 5 answers at first glance. I suppose without that, it wouldn't be very challenging.

Yeah, should be a good time. And I believe it will be the first time I'll be seeing a Cleveland team outside of Cleveland.

I'm known as the master reheater in my house. Any leftovers, I get asked how do we reheat this?
With that said, my daughter eats everything cold right out of the fridge and says we're all wasting our time reheating things.

Morning, all. Happy Dean Day.
Texted with Dean a little this morning. Things got pretty bad and he wound up evacuating. He's fine though just a bit tired from helping neighbors clear stuff out after the storm. His home seems to be on a bit higher ground so he wasn't affected too much. I took this screenshot from a video he sent. Crazy stuff.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230918/8ff6b00241d192913e76b0128f0be3a7.jpg)

My provider has a "catch up with key plays" feature so I saw the pick 6, the Browns' field-goal, and then I watched Pickett throw the interception live. Luckily, the Browns did nothing with that last one.
