It doesn't appear to be letting up any time soon.

I'm heading into town for some grocery shopping. Is anyone interested in joining me?

[really just looking for someone to carry his bags...]

Well, that certainly was interesting.

I think I came back mostly intact...

Incidentally, would anyone have any recipes they would care to share? Preferably something easy? My current cooking skills are rather.... lacking.

...I don't think I've felt so... slighted and sort of insulted in a long time.

What does one do around here to occupy their time and lift their spirits?

Well. Apparently I made it early enough to catch all the drama and mystique. And here I thought I would be missing all the fun. Such great timing.
