Quite a lot, actually, and it turns out we suffered more damage last night than during last week&#8217;s hurricane.

We almost lost power again last night. They <i>still<\/i> don&#8217;t have power across the street. And the Long Island Railroad is <i>still<\/i> uncomfortably crowded.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t <i>so<\/i> bad this morning. I caught a later train, at 7:28, and even though the LIRR did that thing again when they pretend a train is still coming, it&#8217;s just 20+ minutes late, it wasn&#8217;t as horribly uncrowded as last night&#8217;s. I even had enough room to open my book for half of the trip, which this week has been almost unheard of! And this evening&#8230;well, again, still ridiculously over-crowded, but I was on the same train as my father and we both managed to get seats.<\/p>\n<p>And a lot of the show has already melted. I don&#8217;t know what that means in terms of power restoration for the rest of the block, or for my train tomorrow morning, but things could always be worse.<\/p>\n<p>At least I didn&#8217;t have any webinars to go to today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So it snowed.
