Hurricane Gloria
That was the September I went to college! God, I hated that song after just one day.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hurricane Gloria
That's one of my earliest memories. I was about 3 or 4, I think. I remember being stuck inside for a while, and then my dad took us on a walk around the neighborhood, and there were trees down everywhere, and I wanted to climb them (because I wanted to climb pretty much everything, ever) but he said no.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Also, have you all seen the Harris-Burtka family costume????
Hard to say which is cuter, this or the baby red pandas.
There was a big shooting on campus last night, literally ON campus. 4 people shot. 2 people arrested but I don't know if one of them was the shooter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
On Monday, I was especially grateful for cable, remembering being stuck in the house all day (in no danger at all) with only STORM COVERAGE on TV.

Holy crap, Burrell.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Last night Jon Stewart said something about 'watching all your childhood memories be washed away.' I nearly choked up.
"Did you ever have one of those days where everything you loved as a child was under water?"
No one makes me laugh and cry like Jon Stewart. I think it's his super power.

I don't know if any of the victims or perps were students, but it's scary regardless. A lot of people walking around that campus both from the neighborhood and associated with the school, and they all feel quite safe. Less safe than we thought.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
It's a small thing to be bothered about, but either my boss was wrong in giving me the budget for the gifts, or the budget I get to work with is less than half what annoying co-worker got to buy from last year. I call shenanigans.
I am somewhat ignoring him and giving him a gift idea list with things in 3 categories: $100 and less, $101 - $200, and over $200.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah that's terrifying.

My friend is stuck in Brooklyn for two more days since they were supposed to fly out of LGA. They went to the Daily Show taping last night, then had to walk home across the unlit Williamsburg Bridge. I guess this is a holiday they'll never forget.
