Well, damn. Alberto packed more of a punch than we expected here in Charleston, methinks. Lost power at my apartment sometime around 8:00 last night, after one of the big oak trees in our complex took a tumble. Yikes. Naturally, this meant that I fell asleep at, oh, 8:15, because boredom + rain - electricity = sleeeeeep. Also, a tornado touched ( Read more... )

Rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated. Unless, of course, there were no rumors about my demise, in which case, all of you suck for not bothering to speculate on whether or not I was dead ( Read more... )
