Flood warning in effect and other tidbits
No, my snarkiest headspace-tenant isn't on some kind of rampage (the Winter Olympics will be held on the outer circles of hell before *he* goes on a rampage). It's been raining off and on the past few days, but as of last night it started coming down splonkingly. And considering that we're about five inches short for our average rainfall, and thus the ground is dry, it's having a hard time soaking in, thus causing major puddles on our street. There's a low spot that now has about six inches of standing water in it, stretching all the way across the street. I wouldn't be the bit surpised if the river rises in the next few hours and adds to the water commotion.
By some miracle, even though I got up a half hour later than I wanted to (I had an early shift this morning), I managed to get to work only two minutes late. And then my boss let me go home five minutes early; I even questioned that, saying I didn't mind working a little bit longer, but he said, "It's nasty out there: you'll need the extra time getting home. You deserve it." Does that sound like the OMG TEH MEENIEE!!111 that the teenagers think he is?
And by another miracle, I managed to get through a shift-load of bratty customers without flipping out or biting their heads off. Even if they deserved it for telling me how to do my bloody job. So, I rewarded myself by nipping in to the coffee shop next door where I work and getting myself a nice, hot cup of chai tea. Best stuff I ever had!
Also, beware of a fanfic-author who calls themself "Posessed Gummy-Bear Inferno". They write OMG SHUGAH HI MARY SUE!!11111 fics. Including a half-vampire Mary Sue who gets kidnapped by the Twins. ::Loads up the Holy Shotgun with some of Sieges's shells loaded with cut-up wooden stakes instead of bullets::
