Well, we have power back, both at home and at work so today should be as close to a normal day as possible. It is All Saints Day, which has always been an important day to me. It is also the beginning of National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. I am setting out to do a semi-fictionalized autobiographical novel about the month, following, in part, the writings of Virginia Woolf, James Joyce, Robert Pirsig, William Least Heat Moon, and others. I will probably be sharing them as blog posts, so my blogging frequency is unlikely to decline, the length of my blog posts is likely to increase, but the variety of topics may decrease. Look for the first post later today.

Now, unto the normal activities of the day.
