greetings from New Jersey!
Nov. 27th, 2013 09:48 pmMy day began with a moment of blind panic, when I arrived at the rental car place to discover that it was halfway through being turned into some sort of cafe outpost of Greenstar (the organic coop grocery store; yes, I know; this is Ithaca; it can't be helped). Fortunately I have their number saved in my phone, and it turned out that they'd only moved three blocks north and one block west rather than relocating to the airport or something equally unreachable on foot.
The drive was surprisingly unproblematic. Yeah, it snowed most of the way, but it was the snow equivalent of mizzle -- hardly worth noticing, let alone speaking of. The precipitation got heavier between the I-81/I-380 interchange and the Delaware Water Gap, but still nothing to write home about, and while traffic was heavier than on a normal midweek afternoon, it only got really wretched around the I-287 exit from I-80, which is a pit of hell on a good day, so eh, whatever.
I have done laundry, we have had dinner, and shortly I must go back downstairs to check on the progress of the pumpkin pie. All in all, life is good. :-)
