God, lori, then I'd have to bathe the cats. My hands look crappy enough! (Seriously. Since the carving of the knuckle back in november, I've since burned myself on top of the scar pulling something out of the toaster oven [with the element OW], burnt the back of the other hand on the same oven's door, had Mister Kitty maul the carved one when trying to palpitate one of his fatty tumors for growth. I've had people ask me,in that psycho-concern manner, what I was doing to myself. NOTHING. Just a bad klutz.)
[eta: yep, I am that vain. Hence the fake nails.]
Frisbee-stoner dog cracks me up.

I dread chipping my car out.
yeah that was fun after work. I seriously considered just leaving the car and walking home, but since I had fallen on my ass (yes, my actual ass. The left cheek, to be exact) on the way to the car, I was not inclined to walk home on sidewalks that I knew had not been cleared. In fact, my steps (both coming out of the building and at home) were sheets of ice.

Shit, Vortex. I've got covered parking at work, so the only thing was the interior getting warm enough that water didn't ice on the windshield while driving home (which was an issue. I was ok stopping off at the store but after that it went to shit before I clued in to turn on the defrost vents.)
I watched a couple people stand still on the sidewalk and still slide downhill. I really hope it warms above freezing by 9-ish.

Ooh! Holli!
I'm around. Profile Addy Good!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why aren't my pictures uploading to Flickr? Is this some sort of conspiracy to make me not get any sleep or something?

Ugh, I have the ick. I see it's popular round here, too.
Feh. I need to go to bed, but I fear the congestion.

Things I wish I'd read much earlier in the day.
Happy Birthday Maria and Kristin!!
Sheet of ice on my windshield tonight. Used de-icer and then just road salt while the car was turned on with the defroster running full-blast, and it still took for freaking ever to get the ice chipped off.
Then I fell onto my hands and knees walking up the driveway. Ouch. Could have been worse. I crawled about a foot to the gate and pulled myself up. Oh! And the car slid a little ways down the incline I parked it on in front of the house after I had the emergency brake on. Good thing I had the wheels pointed the right way.
Fucking ice.
ETA: Oh, yeah - and I have the very beginnings of a sore throat. Super!
