Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Lots of snow here in KC. Enough that we haven't had power since 1:00pm yesterday. No idea when it will come back.

Total here was 7". Lost power yesterday at 2 p.m., restored at about 2 a.m. KCP&L outage map does not do a good job of keeping up with the repair progress, it lags well behind.

Streets here are in pretty good shape, I don't anticipate any problems for my commute to downtown tomorrow.

Are you planning to commute tomorrow yourself, or WFH, or take a day off?

WFH. Yeah, streets seem fine. Just limbs down all over the place where.

Our wings are not tired.

Yikes, on both the poor doggos and the lack of power and abundance of snow.

Do you have a generator for the essential stuff?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yikes, on both the poor doggos and the lack of power and abundance of snow.

All of this.

Nope no generator. Staying with the in-laws tonight unless the power comes back on this evening still. House is still 53 degrees, which doesn't seem bad after 30 hours without heat.

Yeah, 53 is fine for sleeping, but not so much for showering and getting off to school/work. It's good that you have an option for staying elsewhere. I hope it becomes unnecessary.

Yikes, on both the poor doggos and the lack of power and abundance of snow.

Yeah, this.

There was a chance of an ice storm here, but it looks like we've dodged that. I've spent most of today cooking, cleaning, and reading fic. Which is not a bad way to spend a Sunday.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, on both the poor doggos and the lack of power and abundance of snow.

That one! Yikes.

msbelle, thank you on behalf of the doggos.

I have a question. Do we know the evil genius who designed training videos to be so soul sucking that documentation now seems to be the fun part of the work day? Asking for a friend.
