For those who might be wondering, I'm fine. The storm didn't hit us as bad as it did other areas of NJ, but our power was out for about 36 hours. A large and old pine tree fell down across the street from my house and knocked down a power line, which also knocked over a transformer that exploded. That was scary -- there was a giant flash of blue- ( Read more... )

The hurricane didn't really hit my area too bad. By the time it got to us it was downgraded to a "tropical storm" and it just rained a lot overnight, stopped around noon, and then drizzled the rest of the day. And it was pretty windy. Nothing too crazy. Some parts of the town and the surrounding area did get flooded, but thankfully not me or Rob. ( Read more... )

I love spring, but the sneezing and the headaches 'cause of all the pollen? Not such a fan. I was sneezing and blowing my nose at work constantly today. And of course it was very busy. UGH WHY ISN'T THE ASPIRIN WORKING???

*crawls into a hole and naps forever*

Also, watching Easter Unwrapped on the Food Network for no reason. I don't know how ( Read more... )

Guys, I am so obsessed with this show right now. I've made a fanmix and I've started making another fanvid set to "In the Hall of the Mountain King" from The Social Network soundtrack. SOMEONE SEND HELP ( Read more... )

It's that time of year again, where I have to wear layers and layers of clothing and feel the biting, cold wind cut across my face as I trudge half a mile to work. I dug my long-sleeved shirts out of the basement tonight, sighing as I did so. I hate winter. But I also hate summer. I might hate summer more then winter, because at least during winter ( Read more... )

I woke up at 11:30, and I can't believe it's still only 3:30. I've washed the dishes, swept and cleaned the kitchen floor, finished watching A Very Potter Sequel, sat on the Internet for hours, and am now watching Wonder Boys, and it's still nowhere close to time for Mad Men. I may very well be driven insane. And I can't even go anywhere because it ( Read more... )

The sky is grey, and the weather is brownJust kidding. New York is a great town. I went there on St. Patrick's Day. Didn't go to the parade, since I was by myself and parades by yourself generally aren't fun. But I did walk around the city for several hours, and bought myself a cheap pair of pumps for job interviews I will not be having ( Read more... )

The mall's gonna be closed tomorrow, too! At this rate I may not even work at all this week. Or just Saturday ( Read more... )

Dad: Everything's closed! All the roads. You can't go anywhere. Where would we evacuate to? So we're trapped at home. We got food, right? We got beer. We're good to go!

Mom: Unless the power blows.

Dad: Oh, yeah. Then we're fucked. But that's when we break out the Monopoly board! And we've got candles ( Read more... )

How the fuck is it still snowing? Jesus Christ! I wasn't even able to get to work yesterday... although it would've been for nothing, since the mall apparently closed at 4, so that would've pissed me off incredibly.

I've been trying to write a feature-length version of my short film Inverted, but man oh man am I out of practice. I haven't really ( Read more... )
