Well, it was just icy and dangerously un-salted on the roads in London, but here on the train going north it looks like significantly more snow than the UK usually gets. Fun! (Also, please be melted when I get off train, snow. Kthx.)

I love noise-reducing earphones. Ladyhawke on loud while I edit my journal article. Bliss. If a bit cold. Who needs to drive? Trains are ace!

The are. I wish we had more trains with useful times and destinations around me.

Ladyhawke's popular in Britain? That's nice. Have you heard the Pnau song Embrace? She does the vocals for it.

She's known. She played an awesome gig in Leeds while I was living there. Very good live.

I'm skipping.

The con was fantastic. Besides being and hanging out with friends, I learned Lacanian psychoanalysis 1x01 and Nietzschean philosophy in sci-fi, what to take and not to take when you're getting deserted a-la Crusoe (what not to take, item #1: Jerusalem. Item #2: talkbackers), how feminism ended/saved the human race on various sci-fi novels and the role of feminists in them, the ecology of the alien in Alien and why it's so great, and how to avoid being assassinated in the future (never develop an eternal life drug. Check). These were just the highlights.

And now, back to homework. Sigh.

Edit: ~mas if you need it. Ditto {{}}

Seska, safe-getting-around-ma to you. I hate the extra stress an icy day brings. It doesn't look like it is going to get above freezing here for at least a week.

vicodin contains acetaminophen

I thought the FDA made them take it out, or was that Percocet? (Because people who didn't realize they were getting a double dose were showing up in hospitals with liver problems.)

They decided to leave it in, but put a more emphatic warning (about acetaminophen) on the product information.

Thank you guys so much for the suggestions! I really do adore Suzy. And it makes me sad that her mom is kind of loopy about giving her the Ritalin because when she's on it, she's a totally different kid.

Aims, you almost had me fooled with that picture of "Em," but I'm certain that is a picture of you and you're hiding the baby on us!

We are supposed to get snow tonight/tomorrow, and the map seems to think it will be between 7-14 inches. DC will be paralyzed tomorrow, but my dog will be in heaven.
