But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

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

I know the lady who will accept packages for me. Because she used to be the super. And she's really sweet. I don't even know the current super by name. I've never been in any of their apartments.

My sister knows more about them than I do, which is fine.

Trust my rage

Yeah, I used to dread the arrival of the bill each month.

That's cool news about the TV crew. I've always wondered what it's like to have TV crews around. People seem to forget they are around, which is hard to imagine

Facebook is so effed up right now.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

When we lived in the 1850 Grecian revival house, it cost us $3000 to heat and power (mostly heat) it from December to March. And we tried hard. EVERY window (all original) was shrink-wrapped and the thermostat was kept at 65 durung the day and 58 at night and we each had about 7 billion blankets on our bed.

Our electric/gas here runs about $200 in the winter but our (the state's) gas bills have gone up about 60% this year for some silly reason - I don't know what.

My internet is being sluggish, but I think it is my computer, since the work one is behaving. I hope I don't lose phone. OTOH, I can see Ben's network, so if it came to that, I'd go asking if I could use it too.

I can't enter time into my timecard because the server is fucked up.

I had something cheery, but I lost the thought. It's snowing.

Oh, I remember now: work is officially closed tomorrow. Whee! So I can clean and visit and shovel. Um.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Classes canceled tomorrow. I wonder if we'll have classes at all this week.

Because books.

Aims! I put a package in the mail to you today! Just FYI.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was off work a full week in January 96, and I don't think that was as much snow as you all have already gotten.
