Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

school is cancelled tomorrow for Weather. I don't think this has ever happened in the Bay Area before.

Has the fog gone solid or something?

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

First world problems times a MILLION...I came over to the main office today for a two-hour training session. I plugged my phone in to charge before the meeting started and just discovered that the USB cable I used wasn't actually plugged into the wall. So now my phone is down to 20% battery and I still have the company holiday party to get through before my commute home. And naturally I left my trusty portable battery at home too.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I just witnessed a charger argument in my office before heading off to another holiday thing. "You can't use it, I'm charging right now!" "You're at 57%, I'm at 19%!"

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

So San Francisco is having a drought AND a flood warning right now?

Pretty much, yeah. People are freaking out.

My organization is so risk-averse that they sent us home at 11 today because there was going to be (we were told) a big protest in front of the building and they didn't want anyone to get stuck. And they made all sorts of plans for tomorrow, allowing people to work remotely and all.

I'm just as glad to get sent home: TNG is on new meds and she had diarrhea all over the garage, yay.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I am so done with this brain fogginess. Screwed up an experiment at work by leaving out a reagent, and not realizing it until I went to set up a test experiment. Also doesn't help that this morning I had difficulty navigating the dark bedroom(why I didn't turn on the lamp, I don't know) and stumbled over the corner of the bed. Feh...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Chicago types, in case you didn't see on FB, I've got two tix available for tomorrow's opening of Twist Your Dickens. It's very fun!

It would be awfully hard to name one anything but "Noam", wouldn't it?

Heh.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I have neighbors with a Pomeranian. They BOUNCE.

Yep. My neighbors occasionally dogsit their daughter's Pom, and that thing is a hyper and adorable ball of fluff. That is smaller than Clovis, which is a little disconcerting in something that's supposedly a dog.

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

Thread question--does Forever belong in Boxed Set, or Procedurals? I think that Boxed genre trumps Procedural because....well, it's my reflexive reaction.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I would think Boxed Set, but I don't watch it. I rpobably have the same reflex.

Now I'm mildly concerned that we don't have contingency plans for the storm. Doubtful that I'll have a problem, though, I would be really surprised if my normal commute route flooded.

We have discussed it in Boxed Set, which is not an answer, exactly, but I have the same trump ranking as you do on this, so I agree.
