  • 00:26:56: Updated my resume. Wow, last year was productive! …outside of my chosen field. :D
  • 00:58:15: @gypsyjr My coworkers and I created a blog for all the unintentional innuendo that happens at my workplace. There is no shame here.
  • 01:05:35: RT @rachelsterne: New Yorkers: Follow @notifynyc for alerts tomorrow, and @NYCTSubwayScoop for MTA updates.
  • 09:21:35: I must’ve hit my snooze alarm eight times this morning. You couldn’t pry me out of bed with a crowbar.
  • 09:22:39: CRAP. Bus service has been suspended! Yaaaaaaaaay, I’m walking halfway to work!
  • 09:23:15: I am so freaking tempted to take a personal day.
  • 09:29:48: Spoke with the receptionist. She said not to worry about walking 3/4 of a mile in the snow and to wait until bus service is restored. YAY!
  • 09:33:02: I told her I’ll reload the MTA status page every 15 min, then I’ll email as soon as service is restored & I’m on my way. My coworkers rock.
  • 10:11:59: The MTA website says “service is being evaluated and restored on a route by route basis.” Wonder if I have time to cook a veggie breakfast.
  • 10:25:24: Veggie breakfast: prepared! Mmm, zucchini, yellow squash, bok choy, and onion! And still no bus, so I made the right call.
  • 10:30:16: RT @ee1013: Wait!! Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego are being remade for Facebook?! http://bit.ly/eWPy7u How did I not know about this?! :D
  • 10:37:43: Man, this service restoration is taking a lot longer than I thought. I guessed I’d be an hour late, tops. Wonder if I should just hoof it.
  • 10:38:52: RT @patkiernan: from @NY1Weather: December #NYC storm was 20 inches. We got 15 by the time this storm ended at 5 am.
  • 10:43:40: RT @Harkaway: Zombie outbreak in Utah: http://bbc.in/fabiaU
  • 10:48:13: I have decided not to freaking care and stand by my prior arrangement. I’ll take the bus when service is restored. In the meantime, I beta!
  • 10:56:06: .@BloomspotNYC: “‘Dad’s hospitality, Mom’s food, run by the sons.’ From a six-word promise sprang […].” That is eight words.
  • 11:08:03: Hmm. The M14 has supposedly been restored, but I haven’t seen a single one go by. Ah, the joy of being able to see the stop from my futon!
  • 11:09:00: @AnneSowards You rock. Thank you!
  • 11:10:43: Or not. Different parts of the MTA site say different things. One says the M14 is back, but the other says it isn’t yet. Yaaaay.
  • 11:12:07: @RobJDurand I think that achievement was unlocked the summer I worked 22 days in a row with one day off. Many I worked until 11 or 2am.
  • 11:13:36: Heh. Two of the five guys waiting at the bus stop just gave up and walked away.
  • 11:29:34: Hahaha, the last man has given up on the bus! This round goes to Mother Nature!
  • 11:37:21: MTA website still insisting that M14 is “partially restored with weather-related delays.” Wonder if they only restored the A and not the D?
  • 11:38:42: RT @blazeorama: @priscellie They restored the waiting for the bus part, but not the picking up and riding part?
  • 11:57:11: Not kidding about being able to see the bus stop from my futon, btw. One brave soul remains! http://twitpic.com/3tw70l
  • 12:00:14: Okay, I’m hoofing it. At least I got to enjoy a nice, relaxing morning! Thanks, Demi Snow Day!
  • 13:12:48: A sports fan marks his territory. http://twitpic.com/3twug1
  • 13:24:13: Some mighty sturdy branches… http://twitpic.com/3twxsr

  • 13:54:12: @jbkuma We hid it in plain sight!
  • 14:00:09: In case it wasn’t clear from my picspam, I’m so glad I walked! What a gorgeous morning.
  • 14:52:42: via @gillyperkygoth: Butters, Molly, Harry, and Murphy want your Bad Romance! (w/ @Esperacchius, @myyrdneopia, and @priscellie)
  • 15:27:00: @SheckyX @gillyperkygoth @Esperacchius @myyrdneopia You know you love it!

  • 22:54:48: @jeditigger Yeep, it appears the price is only for Audible members. Sorry for the confusion!
  • 22:58:04: @MickeydotFinn *drools at the thought of so many RED cameras*
