Stormy weather is way more fun when you're holed up in your house, roasting turkey. At about 11 this morning I decided to work from home today, which was working really well until the center lost power and the remote server died. Still got some good work done, though, and dinner was delicious. (And I'm really glad I wasn't there when they lost power, as there are no windows in the building, and I don't know what the safety lighting is like. I bet THAT was fun.)

I wonder if the people camped outside Circuit City and Best Buy lasted through the storms. That wind was pretty intense for a while there.

Random linkage:

+ bought these for the kids. I'm hoping it'll simplify the whole coat-hat-scarf-gloves thing - can't hurt, eh? I'm also looking for mittens on a string, or maybe I should just sew some regular gloves on some kind of string or something? This is not something I grew up with, obviously - anybody know where to buy these or, if there's some magic to making them, some guideline about the length of the connecting string or something? *flails*

+ oh my. :-?

Those boots, huh? They have really expanded the kinds of stuff they stick the school logo on. I fall for it every time. :p

I got a glossy color catalog from the Co-op today and, man, the crap they have in there. You can be damn sure, though, that if I were going to spend $2500 on a pair of shoes, Bevo would not feature and neither would orange. Or ostrich skin, come to that. :))

Even I, in my unending greed for Bevo-printed items, do not want UT boots. I am getting cowboy boots for Christmas, but they won't be orange or ostrich. :p
