Ok, I am procrastinating. I need to start cleaning house. All I have to do today is clean, laundry and a manicure. And pack, but pretty sure I'm not flying tomorrow. So now I gotta get moving. Yep. Getting right on that. Uh huh.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I need to clean today, too. I'd much rather curl up with a blanket and watch the snow.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My patio is one big white mound. The furniture has almost disappeared. The arborvitae is slowly collapsing under the weight of the snow. It is still snowing, and supposed to continue all day. There are kitty tracks on the porch, so at least Stray Cat is okay out there.

I usually like Garrison Keillor. Not so much today. [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
You don't want me to celebrate Christmas, don't make the entire world stop for it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Now, I'm totally a hater of the non-religious Christmas songs. They're basically celebrating cold weather, and I can't get behind that. I can't wait until they're done with. But I notice he doesn't mention Santa. Does he want him banned? What about the Christmas tree? What about all the solstice/yule things Christmas deliberately co-opted in order to become more easily adopted, and that are most popular amongst non-believers? I think his purist stance should give them all up.

We're under a blizzard warning! Even during the Presidents' Day storm, I don't think we had blizzard conditions. I've never been in a blizzard.
This is reaffirming my inclination to not shovel until later.
SW is letting you rebook without fees. I've got a call in to them.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
2 lbs of cubed frozen hashbrowns
1 lb of chopped cooked bacon
1/2 onion diced (I use red onion)
1 big can cream of chicken soup
1 lb sour cream
1/2 stick melted butter
16 oz sharp or colby-jack shredded cheese mixed in plus 8 oz sprinkled on top (I use colby-jack)
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl and put in a 9 X 13 baking dish sprayed with Pam. Sprinkle additional cheese on top. Bake at 375 degrees for one hour. Then turn oven up to 400 or 425 degrees until browned on top (usually takes 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes total).
