Holy crap, Corwood - my college roommate is in Cary. He was one of the people I stayed with on my drive down to the Atlanta F2F. Very much winding roads and McMansions, as you said.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

So, the quake did something that caused a power outtage on campus causing our servers to go kerfluie so that when I first got to work I could not log on. Now, the r&r online database is still not up so I cannot work on the big project that I've been working on for the past week and which needs to be done kind of nowish.
Annoying.

Congratulations on your impending move, Corwood!

I think I'm going to clean upstairs. Downstairs seems pointless, because no matter if I take my shoes off as soon as I get it, stuff tracks.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My tofu-making experiment is continuing apace. It's using up every bowl I own, though, and I just used the last of my dish detergent.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Shrift - sounds like Chicago got twice as much snow as DeKalb.
And twice as much as Aurora which explains my snow day today.
I was just getting up when I got the call, so I promptly went back to bed and slept in. Had some oatmeal. Am still in my jammies. I'm enjoying the day.
I do need to get off my duff and do stuff since I've got company coming this weekend. So...off to shower.

You're making tofu?
Now I want to see a map of Buffista migration over the years.
I think Corwood is going is opposition to the strong westward pull we usually see.
