Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

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

Tommyrot, I as far as I know all trains and busses are running. I'm just not feeling a need to prove my hardiness today. I did that in the last blizzard.

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

Does anyone keep track of how fuzzy the caterpillars were last, um, fall is it? I heard that was actually more accurate than you might think. I'm not sure what species that is, though.

Hey Hivemind, calling Academics and Editors. Just got a request from my friend:

I need a really good citation generator that can manage conference proceedings as well as traditional pubs. Any ideas?

probably MLA or APA. I can grab something. I just need something fairly automatic. Or a new brain.

Any ideas? I guess the conference proceedings are non-standard but necessary?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm just not feeling a need to prove my hardiness today. I did that in the last blizzard.

Heh.

Me neither--I just didn't know how much snow there was.

In retrospect I should have walked half a block to the CTA station and then transferred to Metra in Evanston.

-t, Farmers Almanac and NOAA agree that caterpillars are great at indicating the weather. Last year's weather anyway. [link] [link]

Our wings are not tired.

Not mentioning my temperature, but I will say I walked out to my car this morning to fetch my coffee cup without shoes on, and my toes did not object.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My boss was supposed to call me for a meeting an hour ago. I suppose I should call her.

Thanks, flea!
