There's got to be a morning after...
G'morning.

I doubt we will hear from SOMMS today. He is sitting in the dark. With cake.

My sister in law in Virginia has no power, Mooney - what about you?
Hope all are safe. Remnants of Sandy here, but will NOT complain!
Just checking in to see how everybody is doing post-Sandy.

Hi guys! Very kind of you to think of us.
Brd - we never lost power. The lights blinked and dimmed a few time, but even the cable stayed on, which is unusual. Subway and buses will resume service @ 2:00pm, on a limited basis. We're just really, really, really wet.
Just heard from SOMMS - no trees or branches down in his yard (two down across the street) but still no power.
Morning!
So happy everyone made it through safely! and I hope those who don't have it get power back soon!
Hello Adults! I wanted to let everyone in the Northeast dealing with Sandy know that I've been thinking about you. I hope that everyone is safe and sound and will have power back soon. Miss you all! - Jungle
It sounds like things went about as well as could be hoped.
I am glad everyone is safe.
I just got my internet back...
My power was restored during the day, and I had a rather productive day doing things that don't require being plugged in. Refreshing. I also took a nap.
My office is still closed, as lower Manhattan remains without power, so I shall attempt to do what I can from home. Our server and systems are still down, so I don't have much access to the files I need. Still, phone calls can be placed.
I've learned that one of the homes destroyed in the fire in CT belonged to my mom's friend. And I learned that one of the homes destroyed in the fire in Breezy Point belonged to the father of a colleague. It's hard to imagine such loss. But, in both of those cases, lives were spared.
I am craving a return to normalcy.
It is complete and total gridlock outside my apartment, as I live near the cross-section of major transportation routes.
And sirens keep wailing on emergency vehicles trying to get by.
We are far from 'back to normal'.
Morning!
My office is still without internet, so other than my phone e-mail makes it pretty impossible to work. My town is still under a driving ban.

I guess you're stuck, Tink! Hope the alcohol and kitty litter holds out!
We just got internet service back up at work. What a crazy day here - compounded by the fact that I'm leaving town early tomorrow morning. I'm playing catch up from the past two days while trying to work head for the next two days.

Sounds awful for you NY and NJ adults! Keep the faith!
Hang in there Adults.
I hope power returns for those without soon.

Morning!
Praying all the framily gets power back today!
Still no power at home and internet and email just came back at work.
*walks in, looks around* This place looks familiar, but where are all the peeps hiding? Miss y'all.
Peep, peep! One FROZEN peep reporting for duty. This has gotten beyond ludicrous! I scream and yell every time I have to pass the tree that took the lines down. There has not been an electric company truck in our town for four days. NONE, ZIPPO, NADA, NIET!!! Now they are telling me midnight tonight. I DON'T BELIEVE THEM. Thankfully, I'm away for the weekend. The hotel is going to lose all of it's hot water from the three hour shower I'll be taking when I check in!
G'morning.
A Nor'easter? Really?
I've already gotten emails from students saying they can't possibly return to school next week (again: really?) -- on the one hand I'd be thrilled to just end the semester now. On the other, I like to get paid.
My friend Jill is a student at Pace and she really can't return to class because they won't let her in her apartment building until late last week.
Some of these kids live within 10 blocks of school, SoMMS.
Oh, I know. I was throwing them a bone.

Does BWG have power?
Not as much as she thinks she does...
Oh, wait...
No.
