I still kick myself over the Gus thing, because I had my doubts, but couldn't bring myself to voice my doubts publically. If I'd known "he" was jerking tommyrot around, it'd have been a different and much shorter saga.
Altogether, considering what nasty financial and/or emotional stress other "characters" have done to people and/or communities, "Gus" was small potatos, but I'm still spitting mad to find out that the imposture is still going on in other venues.
So, all 500 public computers in my building (except the 40 Macs) are STILL down 23 hours after the virus first struck. They thought they had it licked at 11pm, but it defeated them. And all the teaching podium computers are down, too, which is going to make the day fun for the tech support people in a whole new way (we are one of the larger classroom buildings on campus.) Very glad to be a librarian.
It's wrong to be like, "GO MACS!" but that is how it feels.
Sorry for the long day, flea.
Up early. An UGH sort of day today.
People's Forum.
I couldn't think what that place was called, just the other day! Good times, good times.
NYC, is it that bad down there? My office is closed.
After nothing blut slush yesterday, we got a foot of snow overnight.
When I was up at 3:00am, there was only six inches, so it's still coming down hard.
I heard a news report this morning from NJ about how it snowed all night and there are 22" of snow and I thought, hey, I'm near DC - we've been there and done that this year! Beautiful to look for the first day, annoying as heck afterwards. I don't know how people north of the Mason-Dixon line put up with it year after year.
Huh. I guess that's real.
And it's relatively still and sunny bright up here at the moment. I think March came early....
I'd like to come in some morning and not discover that I have to run a meeting at the last minute.
We had a ton of snow last night, but the buses were running fine and I made it in to work. I am glad I did not have to shovel a car out, because the parking lot at my apartment building was not plowed until after 7 am.
I don't think it is a snowpocalypse, though. I pretty much feel that until I have to shovel THE ROAD to get somewhere, everything is fine.
