Did you see there was a guy out watching the waves at Diversey Harbor who apparently got swept in by them?
I hope my last thought when I die isn't, "Jesus, that was stupid. Why did I do that?"
Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

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

I wonder what effect that will have.
IO9 is still stupidly broken, for the record. And it's highly irritating that the network it testing the redesign on the sci fi geeks. Get an internal testing team, lazybones. Also, cheapasses.
Where is my project's developer? He missed the meeting! It was important!

So apparently I'm going to be out of work for two weeks, one way or another. Even if they go the contractor route they have to keep the RFP on the street for two weeks.

If I weren't trying to save money because I'm planning to sell my house, I'd go to Hawaii or something. Well, I can do work around the house, and exercise, and write a lot, and maybe get some skiing in. And catch up on Downton Abbey and The Walking Dead...

I spend way too much time on NOAA.gov. While temps are slowly rising, we will have brief period of snow through Saturday and it looks like next week will be a repeat of this week with a stronger storm coming through Sunday/Monday and crazy low temps.

Ski the fuck out of life, Consuela. That's absurd.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Impressive photos of Chicago. Any reports on how much snow fell?

Yeah, pretty much. The Big Boss is coming over this afternoon to talk to me about it, but I don't much care. I don't care how bad you feel, dude: just get this shit resolved.
My one great fear is that someone will tell IT to shut down my email address, and when I come back I won't be able to get any of my thousands of emails back.

That's such a mess, Consuela. I hope you do enjoy the time, at least.
