This is actually [livejournal.com profile] ninjababe, I took the laptop to a Starbucks to try and get a game to work. Ithidrial stated I had to download her email and make a post in order to go [g].

So, yes, we made it safe to Utah. On the day we left, at 730am, we were awakened by a loud 'crack'. Ith didn't think anything about it, since it's the beginning of the month and a lot of people move in at the beginning of the month, and our apartment is right on the parking lot.

Then, the saws started...

A two story plus tree that was in the parking lot between our apartment bulding and the next cracked in two down the middle. Pieces were all over the car port, the other side of our building, and it forced part of another tree onto the laundry building, which is next to us.

Yes, storm season had started.

Oh, and about the national coverage... We get storms like that every year, multiple times of the year. Trees fall, the power goes out, all that... This was just the first big one of the year.

So, it's pouring rain, and I'm loading the car... Had to actually change clothes because I got so soaked.

We decided we were lucky to be leaving the Monterey Peninsula that day, since the power was flickering all morning, and went out totally about half an hour before we left.

According to one of Ith's co-workers, the power in our area was only out for a few hours. However, Carmel and Pacific Grove had been without power for a day plus. But, that, again, is normal for this time of year...

So, this was your Ninjababe-Masquerading-as-Ithidrial update! :)

Glad you two are safe. Sounds like a terrible storm. See you when you get back.

Wow. If that's the kind of weather they ought to have in QoS, that would serve a lot of plotlines.

You're like a superhero with a secret identity. Safe trip!

Is kitty safe? Hugs to you and your non-evil alter ego :>

The Weather Channel was reporting "snow" in your area of Utah, have you seen any or was all of that in the north part?

Y'all stay safe and have some fun to boot (That goes for the both of you!). :D

*Sighs* Yes, I know, I've been looking around, but its impossible to find an updated version of Ninja Slave, 7th edition for region 2, without the Dental Aggression 2K extension pack built in. Apparently, the EU decided it didn't meet the codes... something about a Declaration of Human Rights?

Hmmph...

Maybe I can get one on EBay?

Now you've got me eying the large tree outside my office, swaying in 50 mph winds. Under which is parked my car!

I'm glad to hear you got to Utah safely - but did you then get caught in the snow? (And if you did, could you send it Philly way? We need snow!) Enjoy the trip, and very nice update.

Another problem is that Ith holds the rights to the prototype Ninja Slave (v.1.0)(TM), along with the Ocular Maximizer 5K (aka: "Obey The Eyes") add-on kit, so the newer versions tend to be somewhat bland in appearance, although still highly functional.

The region 1 versions do have an uninstall program for the Dental Aggression 2K extension pack. If you'd like, I can make you a bootleg copy, upload it to Sendspace, and you could see if that works for you. But forget eBay; I think you can find a better deal on Craig's List.

Aha!

Gotcha!

All this time you though I was jinxed_wood, mild mannered fanfic writer, but no, it is I, Inspector Clouseau, Interpol's most effective cyber-crime detective (copyright division)

Unhand that uninstall programme, you ninja-hacker you, before I seize your Interwebs, and mock you private email mercilessly on the Nine o’clock news!

[Insert evil cackle here, or...no...wait....]

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAaaaaaaaa!!!!


[Oh, God, pass me the black stuff, my brain is in need of resuscitation]

Either that or you're on some serious cyber-crack. Got any for me? VBEG.

(And won't we be in trouble when Ith and Nin finally check their email? Mwhahahahahahahaahaaaaaa!!!!)
