Good news is that I found some batteries!
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The grocery store here had batteries, but no flashlights. I know I have flashlights, because I used them a few months ago when there was a power outage, but I can't find them anywhere. I bought a book light, which was the only sort of battery-operated light that the supermarket had left, and I've got a flashlight app on my phone.

The wind has picked up here, but our power was restored a few hours ago so we've been brewing tea and making pumpkin bread and getting ready for it to crap out again.

OK, everyone is leaving work now, I guess I should go, too.

It's not often my sister (in MI) and I (in NC) share the same weather system at the same time. We're both on the edges, luckily.
