trick or treat (belated)

So, this year… I had planned to post a treat on Halloween (see below). Instead I (and over 800,000 other CT residents) got quite a trick. As of this writing, no power at my place since late Saturday night (the 29th). Which also means no heat — at the start of November in New England. After a couple days, I was offered a place to sleep in a house that still had power, heat — and (nirvana) hot water. The only thing it lacked was an internet connection, which came back today. The same day that DMLA is offline due to a DDoS on our hosting service. Yes, a little too ironic.

I’ll be over here counting my blessings. Like — it’s not January, so the pipes have yet to actually freeze at my house. And I have generous hosts who are very understanding (and like my cooking). And I’m getting a lot of manuscript reading done as I had luckily just put some new things on my e-reader.

Here’s the treat (and me with 3 bags of candy that I didn’t get to hand out due to the outage)….
