postmortem

lost power,

and the area around home lost cellular reception.

apparently it will take at least 3 days to get power back..

I'm hoping that day 1 was the night we lost power,

but I'm pretty sure they don't count that way.

there's still running water,

but it's colder than the weather and is rich in chlorine.

there's still gas, and I was able to cook,

but I'm afraid yesterday was the last day I could use any of the food in the fridge

without worrying about spoiled food.

work wasn't mandatory today,

but came anyway since it's better to work than to roll around at home without power.

subways are also not functional,

and the buses that began to run today have been packed.

traffic is not much of a relief.

but all is well.

I am fine,

and the people I know are fine.

hurricane sandy

working from home tomorrow.

not really fully stocked with food, 

but I'll be able to go through about 2 days as long as there's power and water. 

went out for a walk around town with my roommate,

and the place is pretty empty.

news says it'll be pretty strong. 

hope it's not too much.

saturday

during practice,

the leader told us that

with his own will,

he would not be able to put up with the time spent on the church activities he serves.

it is only because God makes him able

that he is able to do all of this.

he is therefore thankful to be doing all the service he does for the church.

I also am able to do this only because God allows me to do it,

and I am grateful.

freetempo

house music,

up-beat, and no lyrics for me to be distracted with 

(there's times when my brain just constantly tries to listen to the lyrics)

when working.

found a couple of albums from this artist in the pile,

so here goes. 

loveholic

vocal's voice is so soft and milky.

ah.. music and coffee spike is a good combination. 

peanut plain

you can't call something

cranberry almost delight

then put more peanuts than cranberries and almonds combined.

weekdays

mondays aren't as undesirable as it used to be

since the weekends are busier than the weekdays.
