Voluntarily. The TPTB went in after the curfew against driving was lifted, found power on and no damage, but told us footsoldiers we could take the day off anyway. I told them I was coming in anyway. Yes, I'm insane. But I was out yesterday and this morning, and I took vacation back in April for Thursday and Friday, so I didn't want to come in for just one day. More importantly, Mom and I were getting on each other's nerves, mostly because Roxie flatout refuses to leave the bedroom. I was given permission to bring CJ to the office (where she promptly pooped in the middle of the floor; sheesh) and even with CJ off the property for 3 hours, apparently it took over 2 of them to get Roxie to go outside. Mom feels this is my fault.

Anyway, there wasn't much going on, just 2 days' worth of mail and few pieces to prep for outgoing. So CJ & I were there about 3 hours, got work done, CJ visited the boss (she knows who keeps treats in his desk!) and hopefully earned brownie points against being out half the week.

Now I need to get some sleep - I had to sleep in the basement thanks to Sandy, and my body/mind just didn't like being in a bed that wasn't mine. Only got a couple hours in as a result.

Still have power, wind and rain are both picking up, CJ is still willing to leave the porch to do her thing but I doubt that'll last much longer, her dentist appointment is still on for tomorrow but work is very unlikely. I might wind up with the whole week off; I took Thursday and Friday off for Euroquest back in April, we closed today and will probably be closed tomorrow. Wednesday will depend on whether we have power. Running through the DVRed shows while we can.

ETA - Doggie dentist just called, tomorrow is cancelled.

Nor rain or Frankenstorms, shall stop gamers from, well, gaming. Not ony did we have Alphabet Soup today, it was fairly well attended, 16 people I think, which is a few more than usual. I guess we needed to get it out of our systems before a forced three day shutdown.

If the wind is blowing, I haven't heard it. It is raining steadily now, however. No word on work, although the unofficial word is, call the office, if you get a busy signal the power is out so stay home. I'm not sure what we're doing if the power is ON, the TPTB are so sure the power will be out.
