Let's Go

More cold today, and 3-5" of snow predicted in the next 15 hours.  Nothing coming down right now, but the Weather Channel's map shows a big honking mess of snow over Indiana and Illinois, heading our way.  So much for my fleeting plans to try getting in with the Mustang today.  Locals - I'm going to be at the office until at least 8, maybe closer to 9, but if the Explorer and I can help out, do not hesitate to call.

Erin got back safely last night, as a call at 1:15 a.m. let me know.  I'm glad she's back, but, wow, that was some good sleep.  Probably won't get to see her until Sunday, though.  I miss her something fierce.

Will probably finish up World War Z during tonight's bedtime reading.  Man, this is some really good stuff.  Brooks is a fine writer, and I recommend this book to everybody.

The Dark Tower comic series releases today or tomorrow.  Half of my comic purchases for the week, I guess, with Hypervelocity filling out the deliberately truncated list.

The actual snow was much less than the maybe 5 inches predicted.  Snow was coming down when I left for work around 11:30, and varied in intensity throughout the day.  About 1.25" on the truck when I left for home at 7:45, and no problems getting home.  A house fire closed East Main this morning, forcing a detour on my way in.  Three houses down from my old attic apartment.

A thread on RPGnet directed me towards girl-wonder.org.  It's an interesting site - essays on Supergirl and Robin IV/Spoiler, and various and sundry discussions on female superheroes.  *shakes fist at Mutants & Masterminds*  Just had to dip back into comics, didn't I?

Learned today that Adamant's plans for a monthly SC2/d20Modern magazine are scrapped.  I was looking forward to this.  Does leave a gap to be filled, though.
