The motherfucking sons of lice ridden bitches who call themselves physical facilities management have STILL not cleared off my side of the parking lot. So, while trying to turn around so that I could park illegally along the railing, my front tire got stuck in a rut of ice. It took about 30 minutes in freezing wind to free the damn thing. I might still be there if two people hadn't come along to help me out. Of course, they had to help me, because my car was blocking the way out!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
So, I'm at work. As requested yesterday, I came in almost 2 hours early to help handle the work load, since so many NY people were out.
So far, not much work, and now I'm reading fanfic. I am sooo leaving early today.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That is not the most fun way to start the day, Vortex. But it was almost worth it just to hear you unleash your invective.
It is sunny, crisp and mild in SF today.
I'm going to try to leave work at 4:30 and hop on BART and redezvous with JZ, Matilda and Emmett out in Orinda. That way, JZ and Matilda can pick Emmett up immediately after school at 3:00, and be through the dreaded Caldecott tunnel before the get-away weekenders pack that sucker tight. We're attempting to o'erleap the bottleneck, and get out to Sacramento with a minimum of driving stress.

Congrats, bonbob!!
My car's front left tire has a bunch of snow/slush/ice frozen behind the tire, but I can't kick it free no matter how hard I try. I'm hoping that the (relatively) warmer temps today will thaw it out enough for me to kick it out (it's so big it rubs against the tire when I turn and freaks me out with the grinding noise).
It was 3 below zero at 8:30 this morning. That's insane.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Rogue squirrel forces down plane
The squirrels have returned.
Just when the squirrel menace looked like it might have faded away, an American Airlines flight from Tokyo has been forced to make an emergency landing in Honolulu because a rogue squirrel had managed to sneak on board.
The squirrel emergency was discovered when, on the flight from Tokyo to Dallas, the pilots heard what has been described as a 'skittering' noise in the space above the cockpit.
Subsequent investigations revealed that the noise was caused by an insurgent squirrel that had somehow managed to board the flight.
The plane was forced to make a quick landing in Honolulu, Hawaii, as the pilots were worried that the squirrel could severely damage the plane by chewing through wiring.
