It's a winter pre-trucking thing.
Joyce: Dawn, you be good. Xander: We will. Just gonna play with some matches, run with scissors, take candy from some guy, I don't know his name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse's right -- oranges are exotic as durians, if you're in, say, Nebraska in 18-whatever. I suppose having orange juice would nearly be unthinkable.
We're getting snow this morning, which is making the world white and exciting. Also exciting is that it's not going to stick, since it's 34 degrees now and only going to get warmer. Which means that it's a nice picturesque snow, which you can admire and then go about your business, secure in the knowledge that you aren't going to have to shovel or do much more than admire it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The snow on the sidewalks here is mostly gone. Some was shoveled away, and what wasn't shoveled turned to ice after being trod upon many times....

Falling? I think it's supposed to get to upper 20s-ish today. Maybe it was falling until the sun came up. (I think. Not that we'd be able to see the sun if it was up.)

Hmm. They said it was 15 a few hours ago.
But now the screen says 14, so I guess you're right. Cool.

Yay!
Of course, he wasn't going to be confirmed so he would have been out soon anyway, but still....
There are still rumors floating about that Cheney might resign...

Art Crawl!!!
TAR: I know! I so wanted to be able for an all female team to finally win but I really disliked both the all female teams left. Tragic.
It was 11 when I was waiting for the bus. (Luckily a friendly co-worker saw me and gave me a lift.)
I was very worried about getting to the bus stop because on Saturday the sidewalk where the bus stop is was not clear and nor was it clear from there to - you know - I have no way of expressing how far it wasn't clear. Basically, from my corner there is a house, an apartment building, a car dealership, an empty lot, the railroad tracks and then Walgreens. The bus stop is by Walgreens. On saturday the sidewalke was not cleared from Walgreens through the car dealership. Today it had been cleared up to the empty log and then from the railroad tracks through to the corner (i.e., Walgreens). Much more do-able even with a bum knee.
(And by clear I mean a range from completely clean to a narrow path shoveled out that still has a base of ice and snow.)

sarameg, I'm sory about using your bacon ones when I had a tin of sushi ones all along.
No need for apologies! It'll just be an extra special weird for the brother (and nephew!) The bacon ones come with a tiny plastic pig. Do the sushi ones come with a fish? This is obviously something I really need to know.
I have bad cat packing tape. Or maybe it's naughty cat. I don't recall.
