We went on our first college visit with Casper this morning! She is a junior.
That is WILD.
Wesley: Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair. Gunn: I vote he's not in charge.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Casper's take, which I know at least Teppy should find hilarious: "It was nice, but it was way too white for me."
Ha! Miami so white. My junior- and senior-year roommate was Taiwanese, and our joke was that I should tell my parents "Oh my god, I'm rooming with *the* minority student!"
(In Miami's defense, it's not their fault we got a fratty white business major who went to St. X in Cincinnati, and also happened to be there the morning of sorority rush, so many women in uggs and formalwear and highly-done hair were dashing around campus in the snow.)
Oh lord, sorority rush.

Our wings are not tired.
Huh, my nephew in NY texted me to ask if I had internet trying to determine how widespread the outage was and it looks like the whole NE is affected. eta: Upstate NY, Maine, New Hampshire

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
What outage? (Lives in NE, not having any issues... so far.)

Ah, it looks like it's Charter-Spectrum, not Cox, for the most part.
Edited to add: actually, it appears to be a DDOS attack on one particular DNS system. Not just the NE, but also LA and Chicago affected.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm on Spectrum, and I'm fine. I'm using Google's DNS, though.

Spectrum is working fine here.

My dinner is just fine, but I overcooked all the parts, which is too bad because I have tons of leftovers....

And my old boss keeps trying to help me by asking other people to do parts of the job until we get our support person., but they all agree with her to do it, and then come to me to show them how to do it, and then it takes more time than just doing it!
With any luck, that's only true the first time.
Except they are only doing it the once, to help out!
Is anyone watching the Netflix Locke and Key? I am not sure I like it, but I LOVE the house. I think I am just watching to see more of the house.
