the everyday adventures of sabrina

• On the tube, haven’t slept in 24 hours. I wish i had the sleep-on-trains gene. #
• And by ‘trains,’ i obviously meant ‘planes,’ natch. #

• 24 hours and one minute! #
• Sleep at midnight, woke at 4AM, couldn’t get back to sleep. At least that means I should be able to conk out on the plane, I guess… #
• @mizmoose 4 feet in one day?!?! that is so not cool. #
• Fretting. Lost scrap of paper with address of friend-catsitter on it, now stuck home until I get it. Wanted to drop cats by noon! #
• @mizmoose Amen. I think the UP needs some precipitation up there, how ’bout you? #
• OhMyGodYouGuysDoNotGoOutThere TheStupidIsAsThickOnTheGroundAsTheSnow *twitch* *twitch* *twitch* #
• Virgin Atlantic’s web site informs me that my British name (so I will fit in) is: Baron Stan Dunboyne-Doobadly. Kinda catchy, yeah? #
• @sanityknit I had to go driving up to the north side, with newly fallen many-inches of snow on the ground. It was traumatic. #
• I am outta here! See y’all when I’m either on the other side of the Atlantic, or home, bitterly dispirited, after my flight was cancelled. #
• At gate! Half hour til boarding; allegedly on time. Cautiously optimistic. #

• Dudes, Gustavo Dudamel is a madman. But a madman who’s pretty good at his job, I have to say. (And v. entertaining to watch!) #
• Staring outside at the near-whiteout conditions again. Is the power of positive thought enough to make my flight leave on time? #
• http://www.sporcle.com/games/world.php 62/195. I feel like a moron. I forgot many former Soviet states, which is like half the map. #
• @jacklund Ask Bill Joy. #
• 11 days: http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2009/01/08/damage/ #
• Seriously, I will forgive Rod Blagojevich for everything if he gets up to that podium and says “I am not a crook.” #
• @blagobusted I dare you to start singing Kum Ba Yah. #
• Blago speech in summary: The House is so mean! I only want to give you healthcare! Me saving your lives is not an impeachable offense! #
• I now resume my previously scheduled whining about the probability of snow screwing up my travel plans tomorrow. 28 hours to disappointment! #
• @shadow Why does Mother Nature hate us? We have done nothing to her! I even bought carbon offsets for my flights! #
• @shadow What sort of a book? Might it be trainish? I’ll buy a copy! #
• @shadow Write it! (Well, write an outline and get someone to buy it, then write it.) #

• Niqui want! http://www.graftonfibers.com/colorways.htm Too bad I’m so damn slow at spinning, lately. A year’s sub would be 10 years worth. #
• @jacklund Sorry to hear that, since it means your head will probably explode due to massive frustration soon. Been nice knowing you! #
• @robotviki Although it’s nice to see they have the same pedestrian sort of coffee we have around here. Homogeneity, unite! #
• 12 days left! http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7809160.stm #
• hmm. Need to think up someone to talk about for http://www.pledgebank.com/AdaLovelaceDay #
• @mizmoose Is that a euphemism? #
• For my birthday, I RECEIVED A UNICORN MADE OF PEWTER!!! http://yellow5.com/pokey/ #
• 52 (and a half) hours! #
• @smokes70 Nah. :) #
• *cries* “The NWS in Chicago has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for 4 to 8 inches of snowfall…in effect from 3A Fri to 6A CST Sat.” #
• @writchrd Well, the comic is for real. It does not, however, apply to my actual gift receipt record. Just as well, not sure what I’d do w/1. #
• After NWS destroyed all my hope for Saturday, now amending countdown: 51 hours until I’m frustrated that we’re not boarding yet. #
• @robotviki Thank you! :) #
• @smokes70 OMG, that was cute. #
