I haven't been playing this game for that long, but I've never seen a mid-day update to the advisory. Especially one that goes from Green to Red. I was just telling UTRider earlier today that I would love a really deep day. Like white room, over-my-head deep. I thought that day was going to be tomorrow. Problem is, it may be over-my-head deep to the point that I never get out of it.

There's some talk of riding the wire in the morning and then working late. Maybe I'll do that instead.

Or maybe I'll just stay home and have some tasty bacon.
