Bah - our doorbell just rang and the guy said "UPS" so we buzzed him in. Five minutes later a Chinese menu was slid under the door. FAIL.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sheesh. Fluids still running. Such is the downside to tiny veins. A downside. I asked them to let me go home anyway. It's been almost 12 hours.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
UGH, ita. I hope you can go home soon, and not have to go back for a while.

We tried to shovel my friend's car out. But after an hour (she's back in an alley, so we had to also shovel out BEHIND the car), she was still just spinning her wheels, though we got the car to move about ten feet. SO we ended up exhausted and soaked for no good reason, in piles of snow chest high.
Finally we walked several blocks down (past the people snowboarding down the street next to the house, which is a hill) and managed to get a cab, to take us to the place in another neighborhood where we bought wings. And then while we were in that neighborhood, we decided to buy a dozen cupcakes too. So we have superbowl food! If anyone comes. :) A couple people live in the neighborhood and will walk.
I'm still praying I can get to the airport tomorrow, and my flight will be there, and go.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
USA is showing an SVU "Man-athon." They say these are the most manly episodes of SVU, or something. So far, it looks like manliness means either police brutality or Stabler taking off his shirt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh jeez, ita. I hope they spring you soon.

I'm breaking out now. And all that after the regimen I keep telling them is less effective.
The couple with the misplaced patient is still in the lobby. I hope that's (relatively) good news.

The guinea pigs and bunnies are GENIUS.
