Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day is another nice comet picture, taken a few days ago as it was passing the Pleiades cluster. [link]

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Megan, give me an update of all your health issues from the neck up, please.
DavidS, sorry for the late response!
My eyes are blinking almost in unison and I can almost smile! I'm going to the ENT next week, the one that did my sinus surgery, and he's going to check out my ear and see if I need to go for a hearing test. Hopefully when I'm there, I can get him to look up my nose.

I woke up this morning to snow. A lot of it.
Eventually, I'll dig into my inbox and voicemail. Maybe after lunch. Definitely after I get more coffee.

I am so happy we haven't had a big snow yet. Today's forecast is for winter mix though, which could get really messy.
crick in my neck from sleeping weird.

I'm under the delusion that we won't get much snow this year.
Please don't try to convince me otherwise.
I wish my newspaper carrier would either manage to get the paper to me by 7 am or at all OR whoever stole this morning's paper gets papercuts and walks around with a newsprint smear on their face all day. Second morning in a row where I didn't get to read the paper.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thanks Edain, and Nilly, who isn't really here.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I am so happy we haven't had a big snow yet.
The only pair of waterproof shoes I own has a big hole in one of the soles, so not so waterproof any more.
Over the weekend, I ordered a new pair of shoes from www.fryeboots.com. I paid extra for fast shipping. Yesterday, I received an email from them that said "The item you have ordered is in stock". Uhm, thanks guys. It still hasn't shipped.
I'm going to have cold, wet feet tonight when I get home.

It's supposed to be 10C here on Thursday! I'm hoping it will melt the snow/ice on my driveway so I won't have to shovel.

We've got a little freezing rain here, but not too bad.

Tom, get a plastic bag and either tape it down to the inside of your boot , or put your foot into it before putting on the boot and you should be a little drier.
Paper stealers are horrible people.
