The Jindal sexiness is related to events like his hurricane updates. Mastery is essentially attractive. He comes across as wonky, with an incredible grasp of what seems to be even the smallest detail, and as a competent and therefore comforting caretaker. (Not warmly comforting, seeing as how he rattles things off a mile a minute without any of the typical public figure expressions of compassion. But comforting in a more cerebral way.) Therefore pressing two very different but deeply rooted buttons for me. Brilliant intelligence and caretaking. :)
I'd like to wait until the weekend to return, so the power outages can be addressed and the roadways cleared. But we're not totally our own masters, so it depends on outside requirements I guess. In the meantime, I'm trying to get some work done while sitting on a reasonably comfortable bed covered with dogs. Come to think of it, that's not a bad way to try to work except that I keep falling asleep.
My brain isn't wired for anniversaries. I manage to get through the anniversaries of my loved one's death without ever noticing. People kept mentioning Katrina, but I wasn't really anxious about anything but deciding the best thing to do. And thinking about the potential of days with no air conditioning. I might have handled that in my younger and thinner days. As a menopausal overweight middle aged woman, a lack of air conditioning doesn't bear thinking of.
