Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Am having a successful day, after my train to see my father was 25 minutes late. For one thing, I wandered into a shoe store thinking I could use something low and lug sole, since my snow boots are no longer necessary, but none of my other shoes are quite right. And they did, and they were 50% off, and they fit! Here's hoping they hold up to walking long distances.

AND it is gorgeous outside! I think I can downgrade to my wool coat.

I just learned that the kicker for the Patriots has a 5 year old son named SLAYDEN. NOT OKAY, PEOPLE.

We're getting snow here. We haven't had much yet this winter, and we're only expecting 5-7 inches, but judging from the grocery store parking lots, people have been traumatized by images of the Northeast and are reacting accordingly.

That's a compromise name if I ever heard one.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

we're only expecting 5-7 inches

"Only"? That's a lot in one snowfall.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I just learned that the kicker for the Patriots has a 5 year old son named SLAYDEN.

Also, a 7 year old named KILLGORE and a 3 year old named MAIMIE.

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

So basically, they're breeding a death metal band?

Tom is joking. He does have a 3 year old named Gannon, which is also not really a name, but it's no SLAYDEN.

True, but it's not out of bounds for what we normally get in winter, and it's a slow, steady fall vs. heavy winds and whiteout conditions. Also, given that the snow is falling from Saturday into Sunday with plenty of advance notice, there shouldn't be too much trouble with road management.
