Moody storm clouds over Ottawa

And this is why I want to stay safe and cosy in the library this afternoon. Job search or not.

One more reason to stay indoors today.

She died at 61? From cancer?

Ladies, gentlemen and respected others? I have no useful words. And no polite ones, either.

Speaking of weather...again...

Got home relatively safe and sound at about 9 PM. Thunder and lightning abounded off in the distance to the north, and now seem to be doing a closer performance for my neighbourhood's benefit than might be considered safe, much less comfortable.

A brief outage of about 5 seconds at most happened about ten minutes ago. Still functional...but I do believe I'll call it a night.

More in the morning before I start vacuuming.
