The game store I work at was hit pretty hard by some heavy, heavy rains last night (I imagine nothing compared to what they’re getting down in the Southern States right now). There was some pretty substantial flooding, and as a result they are closed for a few days.
On the one hand, hopefully the insurance will cover the damages (or at least most of the damages), and most of the stock was well above the water line.
On the other hand, it’s nice to have a couple days I can focus on doing my stuff without having to worry about what’s going on at my other job. Especially because it’s kind of the end of summer, and I’m definitely behind in my writing. So a few days I can just pour into that… that’ll be nice.
Also, I got to watch the magnificent Sandra Oh in “The Chair”, a short series about an English Department chair at an American university, and it was lovely and clever and super, super depressing for anyone who is currently enrolled in an English programme… like me! Huzzah.
Oh well. I do still recommend it, although I think it has issues.
Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
