I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thunder, all through the night / Promise to see Jesus in the morning light

Woohoo!

Also, because whenever song lyrics go through my brain they're followed by

My 9 is easy to load

and

I don't have any books about elephants.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Cycle Crazy: 16 Strange & Amazing Bicycle Concepts

I like some of the folding bikes. And the all-weather bike. And:

Honda U3-X: If Unicycles and Segways Mated

Although I don't know if it'd be possible to ride that one without appearing goofy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Although I don't know if it'd be possible to ride that one without appearing goofy.

Without clicking through, but having seen both unicycles and Segways, I'm going to say no, it's not possible.

Come to Chicago! We have snow here! But maxing out at only 10-12 inches!

I am not commenting on the weather for fear of jinxing myself.

If the school in Chicago decides to hire me despite my horrible interview this morning, sure!

Although, I've been watching Little House on the Prairie today, and that informs me that the midwest has blizzards that kill people, old mines that little girls fall into, and something called "mountain fever" that looks exactly like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever except that it spreads from person to person and causes people to set up completely noneffective quarantines.

Also, The Clown That Raped Sylvia. Not that they showed that one today, just that, once you've seen that episode, you can't ever unsee it.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Deregulation of the electricity industry is a slow-moving disaster. Connecticut has deregulated the generation side of electricity, and a number of independent power producers have sprung up to build plants like the one where the explosion was. Those plants don't have anything like the regulatory oversight of traditional utilities, and they don't have the years of experience. They offer lower rates to high-demand industrial plants, which are the cheapest customers to serve, leaving the traditional utilities with residential customers. Your residential rates have been subsidized by more profitable customers for years.

Plus when California deregulated, Enron set up fake brownouts so they could jack up their prices.
