The university has just closed.

Don't know how I'm getting home.

Ack, sumi! Be careful!

Geez, I hope you can get home somehow.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ack, sumi. I hope you get home quickly, safely and dryly.

I've got a ride home. There are supposed to be two bridges open between here and the east side of town.

I'll post when I get home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, there's a mixed blessing. "You can go home now! Figure out how!" Be careful, sumi.

Working from home is so far unsuccessful. The good news about working from home on a Friday is that there's always tomorrow.

Yes, be careful! I hope there's an easy, safe way home. As much as I complain about the drought, it's only lethal if you're a plant or wild animal.

Take care sumi.

My minion just kicked up a stink about answering the phones at lunch. I understand her position, (she's the only professional level person who regularly gets asked to sub on phone duty) but at the same time, I am @@. Of all the things that suck about where we work, getting asked to answer the phones once in a while is so not worth the grief.

Good luck on getting home, sumi!

We'd been having a drought, but we got several days of rain which may have alleviated it. I hope.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

we got several days of rain

So did we, last night between 4 and 7 pm. I think your way is probably better.
