Ooh, Weatherbug just updated: it is no up to 4 degrees F.. Whoo. And hoo.

sara, sorry it is a yicky Monday. I am not prepared for the shock of snow when I arrive back home tonight. Also not prepared for going to the office tomorrow.

Today I will make peanut butter cookies for my Grandmother, mail a bunch of stuff out, watch another Eyes episode, pack, fly home.

msbelle, we're supposed to get another, bigger snowstorm tonight. Make sure you call ahead before you leave for the airport.

Thanks Tom, will do. So add to my list for today, get to play a game of "will LGA be open" - it's a great winter game.

Yay quitting! I think next Thursday will be my last day, but I might not come in on Monday, as I have two big papers due next Tuesday and Wednesday and it's just possible they won't be done by then.

Maybe you need to buy one now, for future use?

If I were to go shopping now, which I'M NOT DOING, I would certainly look for one now, as they are (as seen in that link) on sale. But I'm not going shopping. Except somehow I have to figure out what to give everyone for Christmas, and I have no idea, and UGH.

Actually, is Theo (or other Somerville local, but I think she's the closest) around? She could do me a huge favor if she could get me the phone number for the Tango school on Highland Ave.

ita, you have a lovely skull.

I like skulls.

amych, yay for a birth-few-days!

Also, each one of these books looks interesting. The only things I know about comics come from "Kavalier and Clay", and I'm curious about the differences in cookbooks from both sides of the ocean, and, well, the third one's a clasic, right?

msbelle, I hope you have yummy cookies and a safe flight home.

which I'M NOT DOING

You're strong. You can (not) do it.

I like skulls.

Me too. A skull is where I keep my brain.

(OK, that was funny in my skull....)

I think the internets hate me, since now I can't get into Google either.

I know that Buffistas make fun of "the Internets," based, I think, on a Bush malapropism, but I talked last night with a woman who works for Internet 2, or WWW2, which is an alternative internet being created by educational/research institutions. It's basically being set up to recreate the functions that Arpanet served before it evolved into the internet and became dedicated to selling shoes and porn rather than to research. So we do have Internets of a sort.

Great pics, ita.

Much yay for Nilly having one down and one to go in the appliance necessities. Two down and none to go would be better, but yay for keeping food cold!

If I were to go shopping now, which I'M NOT DOING, I would certainly look for one now, as they are (as seen in that link) on sale. But I'm not going shopping.

Jesse, ask ita for some helpful tips. She's good at the whole not buying stuff.

Strong winds here this morning. On my drive to work, I saw a stop sign disconnect from a pole and slam into someone's windshield. Thank goodness the guy wasn't hurt too badly. Decapitation (mine or anyone else's) is NOT how I want to start the week off.
