We got hit by a huge ice storm Thursday night. I've never seen one this bad, so many trees and pieces of trees fell that it changed the whole landscape and treescape. An inch of ice on pretty much everything. All night long all I could here was the snap smash of branches breaking off and falling in the woods around (and onto sometimes) the house every thirty seconds. The road was completely covered in fallen branches, three telephone polls snapped. T's work van has two holes in the windsheild. We have no power and no phone and may not have it again for weeks the rate things are going 'cause the whole region is still pretty fucked up.

I'm fine and all my neighbors and friends are fine but I'm pretty much not going to be around for a good long while except for visits to friend's houses that are more that 45 min. away where there is still power (which is where I am now). I am really glad that our house is heated with wood right now. We may be completely cut off from the outside world but at least we'll be warm.

...the universe and everything, ice storm of doom
