I'm working from home today! Which means I get to take cat breaks, and work in my PJs while watchign the bird in the window feeder. God bless winter!
Natter Five-O: Book 'Em, Danno.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
tommyrot, I only WISH I had a root and a kayak.
Seriously, I didn't even try. If it's a Level 2 here, and a Level 3 less than 20 miles north.... my crap-ass job is not worth my life. (According to my source of inside info within my school, if they fully closed the office it would have to count as a calamity day, and we're running short on those, if not completely out, and they don't want to bring the state DoE down on our heads. Feh.)
This is why I hate weather days.
Go nap! Choose nap!

Feh! on you.
Well at least I get to take dog breaks. (Although petting the doggie is not as fun as warm kitty on lap.)
Man, I only WISH I had some root and a cat!

Well, once your cat eats your root and vomits it all over the carpet, you might not think that....
Water delivery guy was just here. He's totally bought off Lulu (boss's German shepherd) with treats - he brings some for her every time he makes a water delivery.
My university canceled classes at 5 yesterday, and all classes before 10 today were canceled. I'd planned on getting in to the office this morning to get some work done, but I decided to sleep instead.
There's some snow on the ground, and it looked like we were getting sleet before, but not much happening now.
So basically, no one can remember anything from last winter?
Four to six inches of snow could still fall in Boston, a city that has seen less than two inches of snow all winter. That could complicate the commute Wednesday morning for motorists who haven't had much experience driving in winter weather this season.
"If we were talking normal winter, this would be old hat," said Charlie Foley, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Taunton.

Happy V-Day y'all!
No snow day, but it is way colder than it should ever be in Dallas. My car refused to start this morning, believing as I do that anything below 40 is stupid weather for humans to be out in.
Mr. Jane and I don't have huge plans for tonight, bottle of wine and dinner at home with exchanging of gifts and snuggling in the cold. We're going home to Louisiana this weekend for Mardi Gras, so no sense in making a huge deal today, only to have to go and make a huge deal this weekend.
What are everyone else's plans?
TUNGSTEN!
I remember hearing a speech from Douglas Adams at JavaOne. He talked a lot about the 10,000 year clock project. One prototype used solid tungsten balls and apparently some where shipped around and kept by people in the project, they had a lot of fun watching FedEx guys picking up these very heavy little boxes. He also said the tungsten balls came with a disclaimer about care noting that nuclear explosions might mar the surface.
