Now, because this deserves not to be lumped in with the preceding post, happy birthday to Katerina and Ms Havisham.
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, dilaudid ita=typey ita.
when I read that I started singing "Surfin' on Heroin" in my head. So very wrong considering your pain.

Damn. Caught up properly on reading the thread. That's much yikes, Jessica. New Yorkers should endeavour to not get washed away today. It's a pretty sensible normal endeavour, but it sounds like today could take some extra work.
eta: Megan, apparently dilaudid's a good heroin substitute because the initial hit is quite similar. Not that I figured there was a heroin romance, but I'm even more less likely to try it knowing that. And also knowing that my veins are all collapsed.
This is stupid, and I gotta stop yammering.

ita, I definitely hope today (and, well, days in general) improves for you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You can keep yammering if you want, ita. I mean, seriously.
A transit official told us to hold off on going to work this morning, so that's nice. I guess that means I should check my work email from here, but eh.

Hmm. The subway website makes it look like I should be able to get to work relatively easily, via an alternate route, but I am skeptical.

Don't take any risks out there, Jesse! Sounds like the end of the world, and you don't want to meet that with damp feet.

Heh. The actual weather is fine right now (although at 6:15 this morning it did feel like the end of the world), but the subways really can't handle a lot of rain all at once.

ita, I'll be AFK all day, so I'm hoping you'll get to go home in a reasonable time and reasonable (!!!) amount of pain. Reading of your travails through yesterday (I caught up this morning) is daunting, though not as daunting as actually going through it.
We're seeing news reports about the deluge in N. Jersey and NY. Good thing that this portion of PA is pretty unaffected.

See, while you ar drowning, Jesse, out here in Alabama, it's baking. 99 today. Seriously? I thought I left this shit back east. Of course, I am in the deep south now, so...
Getting in my couple hours of quiet until the hoards awake. I had to seriously kick D back upstairs at 10:30 last night. He was determined for a slumber party. Kid, you were at top volume, racing around and not likely to stop for until midnight (summer hours) and I have to get up at 6:30. Don't think so. Still heard him harassing his dad at 11 for applesauce and BATTLE.
ita, you'd like this kid.
