I have plans for the rest of the week. Tomorrow, getting stuff organized and cleaned in my apartment, making some calls about movers, calling several of my doctors, doing laundry, and possibly working on some more Javascript stuff. Wednesday, going to campus and cleaning out my office, and taking care of paperwork there. I'm not sure how much of this I'll actually accomplish.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Maybe get yourself some string and breadcrumbs.
I'm considering it! Or a GPS, if it worked in just the building the way it does with roads.

"In 30 feet, turn left at Bob's office."
"In 10 feet, continue past the vending machine."
"You have passed Bob's office. Re-calculating..."
"In 8 feet, make a U-turn at the dangling ceiling tile."

Steph, that needs to exist as a sketch on something like Funny or Die.

we've had a scary lightning surge recently which fried our TV, desktop computer, modem, router, dishwasher, and exploded several lightbulbs on one circuit and disabling all the other lightbulbs that were on, on other circuits. That sucked.
The rain today and in other parts of the country are what cancelled my flight home, unfortunately. Wah. Hope to get out tomorrow morning.

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've never lost electronics to lightning. Once I was driving at night and lightning struck some power lines and the highway pavement 50 feet in front of me. There were all these cool sparks where the lightning hit. It took my eyes about two or three seconds to recover from the blinding light; during that time I drove from memory.

Oh, no. We'd get things like:
"Turn left at the Pajama Llama."
"Circle to the left around the cafeteria--no wait, to the right if you want to use the ATM machine."
"Just past the blue and white cow bench is the main entrance to the cafeteria."
Yeah, one wing of the hospital is the American Family Children's Hospital. It makes for some interesting decor in places.

Fun! Children's Hospital in Philly is like that, too -- all different colors and themes.

I finally have use of my laptop again, and a plumbing tube of flexible clear plastic to keep my idiot cats from chewing on the new power cord. Hopefully they won't find something more vital or expensive to destroy next.
