Phew, Nora's fine and her train is about to arrive in Salem. She's going to make her way to the Beer Works and stake out some bar space. Now I just need to figure out how to get there myself...
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is scary, Dana.
TomW! And Nora! BE OK, YOU GUYS.
I take back almost everything I said about the weather, because in between this morning and now, nearly every one of my neighbors actually shoveled, and the warm means that the sidewalks are almost entirely clear. Except for the massive ice/slush/water puddles at both corners of my street, which will now stay there all winter.
AND I have Cold Stone, which I am finally figuring out how to order from. Except I forgot to tell the poor girl working today not to cheer when I gave my 13 cents change as a tip, and then I felt bad.

Stay safe Tom and Nora. It's awful out there.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Hello all. I have experienced thundersnow and I have shoveled. I pushed neighbors' cars and loaned a shovel to a hapless yuppie who was parked on my street behind a mountain of plowsnow. Even the irritating frat boys got in on the game ans did their driveway. Now flatmate is baking.
I need more snow days in my life.

Good instincts, that one.

Especially over my stupid change, when she and I were the only people in the store. It's not even like I was being an example to others, or anything. @@
