I get all the news I need from the weather report

Yup. I'm with Mister Simon right now.

And the weather report is daunting and depressing enough (considering we're at MGH and not home with Rocco, Coco et al.) without reading about all the tragedy and traumas happening out there in the world beyond Hospital Land.

We're waiting to see Doctor Drachman, The Amazing Bob's regular heart dude. TAB might have a catheteritzation today. Maybe not. We wait and wonder.

There's a very slim chance we'll go home later (much later) today. Possibly before the big storm begins. If not, I'll be sleeping in one of the lounges or on TAB's guest chair. All the hotels right around MGH are booked solid. Of course. Just as well--starting rate for the Liberty is $350. OUCH!

The weather report's now calling for two feet. Coco and Rocco should be here with us. Both beasties, by the by slept with me last night. BOTH! Rocco's taking to his roll as co-house cat therapist admirably.
