One of my friends was going to be flying in from Seattle tomorrow and her flight was cancelled.
And my electricity went out briefly.
I have electric heat.
This is NOT good.
Danger's my birthright.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, that's a mess, meara. And sumi, I hope your power stays on! Stay safe, everyone!
I just had a meeting over drinks with my financial guy. He hugged me at the end. Hmm. (I have a financial guy??)

You have a financial guy? AND you have meetings over drinks? You are way more adult and cooler than I.

I'm not sure how this happened. I mean, mostly he's rolling over all of my old-job retirement funds, so it's not like I'm Investing or whatever, but it's good. We have a bunch of meetings now, getting things set up, but then it'll just be annual.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Dang, now I want a financial guy. All the cool kids have one.
My kids have fallen down the Mine Craft shaft and I'm not sure when they'll come out. Or if I want them too. They are surprisingly quiet in there.
Sending out wishes for safety and safe travels to folks in the storm's path.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Heavy, wet snow started just before I left work. So far it's all melting as it hits the ground.

Really, tommyrot? That's so obnoxious--in theory my flight should've been landing in about an hour. Hrmph.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, I seem to be okay (apart from the guy that dumped tea into my lap on the plane...apparently I am a slut for their hot hot caffeinated juices.
My sister, who I was supposed to be meeting in Miami, got bumped in Baltimore. With concomitant voucher, natch. I never get the voucher until I bitch. Pfft

Those Miss Universe outfits are amazing, mostly NOT in a good way. But I did like Miss Bahamas.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I used to have a finance guy. But then I took out the 250 bucks I had Invested. There goes retirement!
Anyway, I'm on deplane.
And it finally now occurred to me that I'll get in about 11, but my body will think it's 1. Woes. My body will apocalypse before the rest of me.
