Last night, after a week of unseasonable warmth, the temperature dropped about 20 degrees in 2 hours and the wind whipped up ridiculously -- tree limbs all over the road. I'm amazed that I woke up to electricity this morning. The rain quickly chnged over to sleet and then snow . . . winter's back, at least for the moment.
Spent the day/night at the Mohegan Sun Casino . . . a fun time. Won small, and had a great dinner courtesy of "points." Had to laugh at the prices, which are geared to the fact that no one's paying with real money. King crab . . . $44. Shrimp coctail . . . $13. And don't forget the gas on the way home -- $3.29 a gallon. It's like some elegant Bizarro World, where everything is topsy-turvy, but pleasantly, almost dreamily so.
Grrrrr . . . lights still flickering . . . I may have spoken too soon about the electricity.
Before I go, one thing to all the bloggers out there. Please DISABLE the Javascript comments option. Twice this morning I saw blog entries I wanted to comment on but couldn't. Browser settings are like one's panty drawer -- deeply personal and not to be lightly messed with.
Time to go see who's online. More soon. Better go while I still have power. Byeeeeeeeee . . .
