Beyond Boskone: Minicon

I have plane tickets and hotel reservations, and I’ve sent off my registration.

I’m going to Minicon! (This’ll be my first non-commuting con in nearly a decade.)

Here Comes The Flood

So there’s a massive water main break not far away from here, and a chunk of Kendall Square is flooded.

They had to evacuate some buildings adjacent to the break, including the Marriott hotel, because basements were getting flooded and the buildings might therefore lose power.

Traffic was (maybe still is) totally messed up, but that didn’t affect us, since we could just walk around the affected area.

Unfortunately, the water main break also means that large portions of Cambridge have low or no water pressure.

Including my office, H’s office, and our house.

Bah.

I sure hope they get this fixed soon.

EDIT: Our water pressure seems to have improved, and is now back to normal or close to it.
