Alma 39:3
And this is not all, my son. Thou didst do that which was grievous unto me; for thou didst forsake the ministry, and did go over into the land of Siron among the borders of the Lamanites, after the harlot Isabel.

After several concerned calls from the parents over the last couple of days, I promised my mom I would find the safest place to hide out during the storm — so I crashed in the office last night. Not at all fun, although it helps to have cable, high-speed Internet access, a kitchen, and a big comfy chair. A cot would have been nice.

The California Guitar Trio show in Annapolis was canceled after all — an obvious call, really. Paul doesn’t have permanently accessible entries in his online diary, so I’ll quote instead:

The CGT show in Annapolis tonight has been cancelled due to Hurricane Isabel. The owner of the venue was concerned about power outages, flooding and the safety of the audience and performers. This will impact the finances of the tour significantly, but better to be safe. We will reschedule the show for our next trip to the east coast. This afternoon, I’ve been in my hotel room here in Frederick following the storm on CNN, TWC and watching out the window. This morning, before the show was cancelled, I was actually looking forward to the adventure of doing a show during the Hurricane, but now that I see how severe it is, I don’t think anybody will be going to any shows in Annapolis

Now, since I’m amazingly tired, the question is whether to stay here for awhile and get some work done, or just go home and get some sleep? I did get a bunch of work done after hours yesterday, but I have more to do that needs doing. And I’m not even sure what the roads are like yet; I just stopped pretending to sleep a few minutes ago. Decisions, decisions . . .
