    My office is in Zone A of Manhattan, which has been evacuated due to Hurricane Sandy! Between that, and all of the public transit being down, I can't go to work for a good two days. While we are required to do work from home, since our work is client based, and our clients are pretty much just as screwed by the hurricane as we are, I'm pretty much chillaxing today.

    Any other folks home due to the hurricane from work or school?

    This makes me think of snow days as a kid. I hope you're okay and I worry about you! but I would totally take advantage of that hurricane.

    Red cross is saying keep enough food/water for three days and we may lose power for a day, here near Toronto.

    Viacom building is closed so I am home doing freelance work and relaxing. Rainy days getting to sleep in are so fabulous.

    They're saying it might be closed tomorrow, but it might not. It's supposed to rain Wednesday too, but I'm hoping it doesn't smurf up my chances of entering the Halloween contest at work.

    As far as I can tell, we're only supposed to get lots of rain and wind. I hope that's the case, I'm not ready for snow

    I live in Tennessee so... the worst I'll see is maybe some massive amounts of rain.

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.

    Here in Texas all we are doing is watching the stupid weather reporters who stand on the beach and try to report while they get creamed by the waves.

    I mostly work from home, which means I mostly work while in my pajamas or workout clothes.

    San Francisco is expected to go absolute balls out insane on Wednesday with huge delays and public transportation shut downs due to the parade for the Giants. I expect that'll cause some trouble for people trying to get into work and people who are at work probably won't be doing much that morning anyway. People seem to really love their baseball around here.

    According to Google Maps now is the perfect time to drive around New York City if you need to:

    I wish we had a hurricane. I would have liked the day off from school after moving.

    Rock me like hurricane. Yeah no bad storms are probably not the time to drive about Mulley. At least go on foot so you can hide in a building if it gets bad.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    So... it's supposed to be cold, rainy, with crazy fast winds and someone told me that we've been told to stay indoors because of this. I think they misheard the location because only the wind is crazy and it's not nearly as bad as when we had a small tornado go by.

    So long as the trees in front of my house don't fall on me this hurricane shouldn't be bothering my area much.

    Edit: Hope everyone in the areas being hit are safe.
