Out of the Blue

So it snowed all afternoon yesterday, and it rained through the wee hours, leading to icy, slushy conditions around here, compounded by a blackout that left the traffic lights inoperative (the power went out briefly here in the BlueTower too, but thankfully returned). Understandably, many folks who were close enough to do so chose to walk to the train station rather than dig their cars out and deal with all of that. The thing is that with the sidewalks all icy, all these pedestrians chose to walk in the streets, making the drive to the train an adventure that involved avoiding idiots with their backs to traffic on icy roads with no traffic lights.

Always an adventure.

Where the hell is everyone?
The internet down across the Midwest and South or something?

I don't know, is there a ship dragging its anchor up and down the Mighty Miss?

Working my ass off because we do not have any staff level employees for the last couple weeks - hopefully we will hire one or two soon to help with everything....
