I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wish we were getting more rain here, but it went west. We need rain!!

Our wings are not tired

I just want to still have a business when we finally get through this pandemic.

Yeah, got a notice today that one of our neighborhood bars that has been in business 45 years is closing. Selling off the contents. It was just another reminder that a lot of businesses aren't going to make it. We really need to have a huge infrastructure/jobs/stimulus bill to go forward in January to get money in people's pockets again. And of course a vaccine, and people taking the vaccine.

January seems hundreds of years away. And of course I won't even consider the possibility that we won't have sane government by that time.

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

I hear you, Noise. I hope we don't end up in a Great Depression scenario with all of us standing in breadlines instead of working. And, short of that, I hope very hard that society doesn't screw you and the people like you who are being responsible both to public health and your employees as best you can.

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

I have no power (going on 5 hours) and several trees down. The entire county was more or less trashed so getting power back is going to take a while.

A not small part of me hopes it will be off at least long enough for me to take a personal day tomorrow because OY.

Yikes, not fun. I hope they are able to get power restored quickly.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Our power went out last night for a few hours, but it happened right when we went to bed, so it was an optimum time.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The entirety of our hurricane experience was over in an hour -- it was a violent front (trees down) but the sun was shining an hour later! I guess I'm so tuned to 2020-Disaster mode that I'm just going to be expecting disaster is just around the corner until it's over.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I must have been on the edge. Just a lot of rain (which, to be fair, we needed) and windy overnight. Never lost power.

Hey Fred! Happy Birthday. Any plans, or waiting for next year due to 2020 denial of celebration?
