Chicagoans! I'm trying to figure out how to get from Chicago to Aurora and Flossmoor (not necessarily same day) without renting a car. Thoughts?

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

OMG!!! How does a persion work on a computer and not know what version of Windows they have! It's been Idiots on Parade all day!
I bet it's PMS. The day has that "Must throttle the next fool I meet" feel to it.

I have no work tomorrow! Because Fay is coming.
Unfortunately not our super awesome Fay but Tropical Storm Fay. The winds aren't the issue but lots and lots and lots and lots and lots. And Lots of rain. One estimate I read was 8-15 inches. All the schools in the surrounding counties are closed, so work is closed.
Whoo! Except I may lose power because we've had lots of rain and the ground is saturated so trees may go down. Or the wind will knock down limbs.
Extra day yay! lots of rain boo!

One of our new visiting profs was limping and now I know why: [link]
Today we had the new faculty orientation, and since no one told me he was joining the faculty I googled him to figure out who he was. Why it's so difficult to get a list of people that will be teaching is beyond me, but in the 10+ years I've been at universities, I've never gotten an accurate list.

Ha! I just got a new error message in Word! I've been keeping all of my Spanish discussion assignments in one Word file. Word just told me that the file had too many spelling errors, and it could no longer track them. I am laughing and laughing and laughing.

“Not dead yet!”

So far, so good, for us. Gusts of wind and steady but not impossible rain. She's finally over land, too. Just moving slower than molasses in January.
