Now I need to go to bed. I've been working on a unit plan on The Holocaust for the past month and it's due Thursday. It's very depressing to immerse yourself in the Holocaust. I don't recommend it.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

No, indeedy. I suspect some of the Holocaust Deniers are an extreme version of putting fingers in the ears, closing the eyes and chanting "la la la". (The rest are just assholes.)
What a cheery thought to start the day with!
Anyway, the inch of snow they predicted did not materialize. Which means I suspect it'll show up right in the middle of my morning commute.
With my luck, in the form of one GIANT snowflake. Which will land on my car.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I'm beginning to think that I'd prefer snow to the bitter cold we've been having the past few days.
Of course, if it started snowing, I'd start bitching about the driving, etc. almost immediately.

Our wings are not tired.
No snow, but a thick coat of fog here. This is very rare indeed. The kids were all agog on the ride to school. It isn't so awful when the roads are all straight and flat. Tis kinda pretty.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
This is why I shouldn't go to bed so early, isn't it?
Theodosia, I hope that snowflake thing doesn't happen to you. If it happens to the person next to you though, make sure you take a picture.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe the giant snowflake will miss all the cars and you'll get to see it rolling down the street. That would be cool.

I'm getting the pig!

Nooooo! A few of my co-workers were saying the same thing last week. Today we're getting dumped on with the white stuff. BITE YOUR TONGUE!

I like ita's giant snowflake idea better than mine.
Seeing it take out something easily replaceable, like a mailbox, would be cool though.

My plan is to not be in my car when the giant snowflake arrives.
I will also be beltless, just in case it has one of those extra-powerful magnets.
