I am also appalled at ita's hospital. Completely ridiculous.
My cousin's wife (SE PA) posted that their electricity was out for a few hours until her husband went down to the basement and threw the circuit breaker - and voila! Electricity.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jessica, it's still down tomorrow even though the hurrican will be over? Wow.
The MTA won't give an eta - they can't even START cleanup on the subways until the storm is completely over, and there are a lot of downed trees and flooded stations. If the express buses are running tomorrow morning, I can go that way instead, but right now there's only very limited local bus service.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap, Jess! Up here they are saying the MBTA should be mostly normal in the morning.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
A&E is having a Criminal Minds marathon, and it occurs to me that as much as I love most of the eps they are showing (I can't not watch Minimal Loss), I can't watch the James Van der Beek episodes. Too much Reid woobie.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The Saints preseason game is actually on here. The Saints just scored a touchdown, and the Oakland crowd booed. Do I usually just block it out when the home crowd boos the opposing side? I seriously didn't remember that happening that much before.

Oh, it sounds like Ingram might have done something to provoke the crowd.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The game is blacked out here. I didn't think they did that for the preseason. I blame Al Davis. As usual.

That sucks, -t. Looks like a pretty low attendance.

Aw, I love Reid woobie episodes! I was just rewatching "Corazon" from this past season, and that's filled with Reid woobification. But that's just me--my first ever ep was "Sex, Birth, Death," and the Van Der Beek two-parter were my 3rd and 4th ep, so I was imprinted for Reidesque eps early on.

I just made fish tacos and topped them with queso fresco, grilled sweet corn, avocado, and homemade salsa. OMG these fish tacos are amazing.
