I'm only laughing because it wasn't me.
Which means it probably will be someday soon.

There's always preemptive rehab, Cash. Then you'll have a relapse excuse right handy!

That is hysterical. Why are you up so early, Lee?
I have two villanelles written and one more to go. YAY! I'm not doing well on them, but I've reach the point of just hoping they are done. If I can finish one more and read two books I'll be good to go on my trip. Grr.

You know what's nice? A burst water main in subfreezing temps on your route to work.
Negotiated it fine, but I didn't need that kind of excitement.
I have post-nasal drip. I may have to die.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I was all set to get to work on time for once, to make sure I got the right info to the big boss, and.... "someone requiring medical assistance" on my train. Fuck! So instead of my usual two trains, I took three trains and an extra half-hour to get to work, got here, and... big boss wasn't around. So I got my shit together to give her, and she came by my office, and all is well. Phew. But still!

Huh. Those are going around. I had brunch with Nora and Tom on Sunday, and our initial destination was frelled by a busted water main. Luckily, it hadn't quite gotten to the sub-teen tempratures like it has since Sunday night.

We get'em whenever there's a drastic temperature change. I much prefer the summer ones....

It's probably too early for Hecubus to show up, but I'm eating breakfast and I didn't want him to miss out on an oatmeal experience.

At the bottom of this article of people dying from the cold is a bit about people wandering into a Starbucks and staring, uncomprehending, that a water main bursting prevented them from brewing coffee.
From the article:
Frozen pipes closed one downtown Chicago Starbucks for several hours Monday, and employee Jerry Berry, 24, said some customers stood in disbelief for several moments before moving on to the next shop a few blocks away.
I wondered why they didn't just go to the one across the street.
