Dispatch from the Storm Center
Hi, chums,
I'm in Connecticut, and we were hit by a freak blizzard Saturday. Pretty much the whole state is without power.
I'm lucky -- we have a wood stove for heat and a gas stove for cooking.
And it's been great for my boys. They're addicted to electronics, and they've spent the last few days reading and playing games. The big one taught the litte one to play Stratego.
Of course, I also am an electronic addict, so it's been tough on me, but I'm coping. I finally got around to reading Cormack McCarthy's The Road during the storm -- and the blizzard heightened the grimness of the experience.
Today I'm back to work. I work in a Police Department, so we have power. (I work with juvenile delinquents). And I'm trying to catch up with my on-line life a little.
Today starts National Novel Writing Month. I've done NaNoWriMo for the last couple of years, but not sure I'm up to it this year.
Hope you're all doing well...
