Irene watch

The state of Virginia is sending its employees in the Eastern third of the state home at 3 this afternoon and telling all of us to avoid travel this weekend. What's happening where you are?

Not much....

I don't think my students have noticed....

You're not really in the path, though. It's a bit much to expect students to notice anything further away than the nearest bar.

(who me? cynical?)

Yeah. My twitter feed, on the other hand, is freaking out: lots of east coasters. My parents have stocked up on whipped cream.... don't ask.

I'm not asking. I am, however, thinking your parents are a lot kinkier than I'd previously imagined. Not that I've imagined. I mean ... you know, maybe you should just forget I said anything.

At the moment I am in Nova Scotia, and the weather is perfect (if you like that whole sunny warm cloudless blue sky kinda thing).

We are, however, anticipating a wet, bouncy ferry ride across the Bay of Fundy tomorrow, followed by a long, long drive home in the rain.
