Quixley Prepares for Frankenstorm

There are all sorts of things going on down here in the Northern Domicile, but I haven't got around to writing about them yet for the very same reason that I have things to write about.  How about that.

Right now, of course, what is happening is that we're about to be pounded by Frankenstorm and possibly all die.  It's very exciting.  I'm not really supposed to say that because Alfredo doesn't want anyone to panic, however.  He's decided that we have to keep the curtains totally closed so that no one notices anything unusual about the storm outside.  I'm not sure what he'll do if the power goes out, and I'm not sure how he's circumventing the fact that about half the denizens of the Northern Domicile have smartphones these days either.  Somehow I bet this is going to get out of control.

Wow, listen to that wind howling.

I'm actually posting about the Southern Domicile, because Rochester has concluded that everyone down there is mature enough to handle news of their possible impending demise.  They seem to have decided not to get too fussed about it.  Or at least Quixley, who has been IMing me off and on all morning, isn't too fussed about it.  Although he's pretty laid-back generally, so maybe he's not the best test specimen.  Anyway,  he sent me this picture of himself a bit ago and I had to share it with the world in general:

Quixley tries on KEP's boots

KEP was kind enough to share her boots with Quixley, as you see.  (She's pretty cool that way.)  They look rather fetching on him, don't you think?  Totally his colours.

The other news about Quixley is that he has a new boyfriend.  His name is Quellidore and they met playing WoW.  When he told me this, I was like, 'Didn't you just have a new boyfriend you'd met playing WoW the last time I talked to you?' but Quixley explained that no, no, that was like months ago and it's so over now.  Quellidore is totally different.  I dunno.  Quixley's always assuring me that his newest True Love is totally different from the others, but they always turn out to be really high-maintenance.  I wonder if he'd have better luck if he'd, like, meet them in person first.  But who knows?  Quellidore might actually really be different. 

I personally suspect that part of Quixley's problem is that he's been on the rebound for a long time, sort of.  He had this boyfriend in school -- his name was Quenevire -- and they were together for a few years, and then broke up (I don't know why; Quix won't tell me), and I think Quixley never really got over him and just sort of throws himself into relationships so he doesn't have to think about it.  Or possibly he was really on the rebound for a while and sort of fell into that pattern and got stuck.  It's been like five years, though.  It makes me wonder whether he should just look up Quenevire and see if they have any chance of rekindling things.  But,  you never know; maybe one of these online things will eventually work out.
