Thank you all for being a large enough sample size for basically anything. My mother was trying to say that all of Texas had lost power, and was like, NO. Not the WHOLE grid. My friend in Texas has power! (Dana, right??)
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
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 trip on how happy we could be.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Right. Only a lot of Texas lost power, and we apparently came within minutes of the entire grid going down. Yay? But I have not lost power at all.

I'm definitely not saying it's good. I was just suggesting that if we lost power here, the odds are decent that a nearby relative would still have power (they all live in different directions).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
If anything is going to sink Cruz, it's a picture of the front of his house. All lights are out, despite the fact that power in that area came on last night. The killer, though? His dog can be seen looking out the front door. Apparently it was left alone, in the cold and dark, while Cruz took his kids to Cancun, with what looked like luggage for a week's stay.

Yeah, I think/hope it would take something big to bring down a whole grid.

We had that in 2003, but at least it was summer. That was crazy.

Our wings are not tired.

WHAT!!! It is deplorable enough that he left the people of his state, who are dying, but leaving your dog in the dark house. Every day they hit new lows. I don't know what it will take.
