Waiting for Stormageddon. Pass the cheesecake.

So here’s what’s going on tonight at Howdygram headquarters. In a word, NOT VERY MUCH. (Okay, that’s three words.) So far the highlights of my evening have included all of the following activities: 1) Sam called about half an hour ago to let me know he’s working late; 2) I’m redesigning a website for a client in Colorado; 3) my third load of laundry is in the dryer; 4) my knees are killing me; and 5) I might make myself a nice Easy No-Crust, Low-Carb Cheesecake now that I know I’ll be home alone for a few more hours. I can eat it while I watch The Iron Lady, which I recorded tonight on Showtime. It’s that Meryl Streep film from 2011 about the life of Margaret Thatcher. I was never too crazy about Thatcher, personally, but I sure do like Meryl Streep. Especially when cheesecake is involved.
There might be some huge severe weather around here tomorrow. The Dallas metro area is expecting thunderstorms, powerful straight-line winds, heavy rain, possible tornadoes, hail, fire and brimstone and a possible plague of locusts, primarily because we’ve had unseasonably warm and humid weather — it was 80° today — which obviously can’t last much longer without the world coming to an end. The current Stormaggedon map appears below in case you’re interested. The hoo-hah is scheduled to get underway around noon. Stay tuned for an update, okay?
Today marks my 92nd consecutive (and final) featured Hat of the Day. I don’t know if you paid any attention to those crazy pictures in the right sidebar or not, but a few of my favorites appear below. You can shop for these hats and other classy fashion treasures online at Rita’s Couture. If you tell them the Howdygram sent you, you might get a courtesy discount. Or maybe not. Thank you.
And now it’s time for cheesecake, Meryl Streep and an insulin injection. I love my life!
