So that blizzard might impact me.

My flight back is scheduled for Sunday night. My parents are flying back Monday. School, however, might not start when scheduled as residents are supposed to move back in over the weekend. If they can't move in, obviously we can't start classes. My flight is eligible to be rescheduled without a fare change. So...I might go home a day later than expected. Will know for sure when school announces something tomorrow.

Nope, not a bit. The good thing is that somce it's just me, it'll be easier to find a seat on a plane. The only bad thing would be if I can't get out of here until Tuesday. Then I'll be here...by myself.

I'm sick though and unsure whether I'll make it out the door tomorrow, so I wouldn't mind an extended trip. I was thinking I was about due to be sick because I haven't been sick in months other than the ocassional cold (seriously, the only time I missed work and school was for my hand surgery; I went to my allergist for a check up when I realized I hadn't seen him in six months), but of course I get sick...now. :bored:
I'm so sorry you're sick and it's while in Disney but 6 months for you is almost a miracle. I'm glad your immune system is improving and I hope whatever you have is nothing but a 24 hour nothing. Prayers and pixie dust. Please be safe when you get home

sounds like he fell and hit on a rock.. or an ICE block? o_o
He fell and the board's fin smacked him in the face. At least he wasn't surfing alone. But my friend was in England at the time having dental work done...she's English, but lives in Ireland now, and she's allergic to a bunch of the local anesthetics. So her dentist in Ireland couldn't treat her and she needed to have root canals and such done and to get it done in the hospital was going to be more than a year's wait, even being on the urgent list. So she went back to England to have it done there with her old dentist. So she was supposed to be there for a couple of weeks and she got a call from the surfer friend who was with her husband when he went down....he fished him out of the water and drove him to the hospital and then called my friend, but completely downplayed it....just a cut on his face, no biggie. She was able to call the hospital directly the next morning and find out that he was going into surgery to reconstruct the eye socket and sinuses, and that he was concussed. So she hopped a plane back to Ireland and she'll have to go back to England next week to finish her dental work. Nasty business all around.

in other news.. I'm furious and also worried.
My mom got a new car mere weeks ago..
and some ahole just rear-ended her new car, because the dbag was probably going way above the speed limit and talking on phone.

My mother seems to be ok and is now waiting for my sister in the repair center of Nissan.

Not amused.. as a car hit can pretty much nail 20% of the car value in an instant.. even if its just dents..
and it was a NEW CAR with special proximity sensors for her.
But doesn't his insurance have to cover it? He's liable, isn't he?

Double sympathies for your friends? How are they mending?

She didnt appeared worried or hurt on the phone, but then.. I'm partially deaf.. I hope my sis can help her.

I also hope the dbag stopped or was detained.. so he pays for the damage.

Worse I can think of is.. the dbag running away, leaving my mother hurt.. (because of her bad back), car paid by insurance but still she had to pay both the medic and a fraction of the repairs..
How's your mom today? Did she go to the doctor?

The dude that killed off Pluto as a Planet has found a replacement Planet to adopt into the solar system. Wonder if this one will be named Goofy?

Did he actually find it? The article I read last night said he was LOOKING for one and that there was evidence of a large one at the edge of our solar system, so they are using high powered telescopes to look for it, but being so far out, it won't reflect much light and could still be extremely difficult to find, even if it does exist.
