Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Chikat - it's epicenter was in Sycamore. Are you in Aurora? Or Naperville?

Aurora (west Aurora at that), so that makes total sense. I was dead asleep when it hit, so my brain did not process well when it woke me up. I truly thought I dreamed it.

I'm in Wheeling and if I did feel the earthquake, I went right back to sleep. My cat had the crazies this morning, but not until 7:30 or so.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We seem to be alternating between periods of ZOMGWTFSNOWPOCALYPSE and periods of dead calm. I think my decision not to leave the house was a good one - I'd hate to be looking at an afternoon commute right now.

And driving in the city is now an arrest-worthy offense.

Yikes. Also, I love that you're so happy in your nabe!

Punishingly Intricate

Schools here are closed through the end of the week.

My god, lisah, that's terrifying. Not the mayor. Good health thoughts Bob-wards, and good general thoughts to all y'all.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

The Sun-Times is saying that we got 12.6 inches of snow. Not enough for a snow day, just enough to be aggravating. And today was the first time I really felt the CTA cutbacks.
