The snow began last night about midnight. And it's still falling. There must be at least six fresh inches on top of everything we had already, and it's supposed to keep falling until sometime tonight. Juneau was a bust for Woodstock, but Linus is making up for it. It is truly beautiful here. Currently, the temperature is 21˚F, but the windchill is ( Read more... )

Great photos - they make me cold just looking at them. Congrats on the mention of the best 2014 reading list stories!

Sometimes we need medications that other people judge harshly. When I was living in New Jersey, the asshole of the east, I brought a prescription into a CVS, which I hate, and the pharmacist put a pen slash across the prescription and handed it back to me and said, "Now try and fill this somewhere else." The slash means it has already been filled or judged no good by a pharmacy ( ... )

Three of my stories made the 2014 Locus Recommended Reading List: “Interstate Love Song (Murder Ballad No. 8),” “The Cats of River Street (1925),”and “The Jetsam of Disremembered Mechanics.”

Congratulations!

The photographs of the ice-fall are extremely beautiful. I also like the Alfred H. Smith Memorial Bridge.

as a Schedule 2 controlled substance,

I get really disturbed by the same procedures to get both my pain killers and one of my antihistimines, I understand the pain killers but the antihistimines? Thats only controlled because you can cook meth with it, not that its dangerous to take.

I get really nervous when I hear stories like that about scripts as I am on severe pain killers for severe pain and I have this great fear that things are only gonna get worse. I hope not it allows me to function "normally" and who the Hell would ever have a problem with that - but yet they do. Glad you got what you needed - I have been there - I have to drive about the same distance round trip this Friday to get my 3 times yearly script. I know what a relief it is to get that shit out of the way. Now you can snuggle back down in the cabin - I confess I am so curious about the screenplay!
