Snow day here. So the boy is home. I've been up since 3:30 due to the plows and I tried to start work at 5am. Didn't do me much good since it is the first week of the new year and our financial database hasn't been updated yet. FARCK.
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

We're supposed to get about another 6 inches tomorrow night - we'll see if it's actual snow this time or just more slush.
Man, having a baby in the winter is hard! When Dylan was a week old I could go for a walk in the park every day, just to get out of the house. But in this weather I need to have an actual destination.

Because books.
I remember that with Sara, Jess. Winter babies can be hard.
If you're stuck at home, though, you can always take more pictures of her. ::nods::

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My school called at 3:30 to call in a snow day. One the one hand, I was all freaked out and disoriented; OTOH, it allowed me to turn my 5:45 alarm off, and I slept till 9!!
It's perfect timing, as I can now spend all day working on an article due tomorrow, rather than frantically working on it all night after a full Monday of classes.
It's the first snow day in a while!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Weelll, I made it to work but shouldn`t have. Can`t eat, nauseated. And feel dizzy but I can`t tell if that`s because I`m so tired from the rough night last night, or I`m not awake yet from the nap in the (heatless) car, or if it`s actually a symptom. And I can feel where the headache wants to be. Sitting in a darkened classroom while the SO does the science in another. Blargh.
No snow for us though, so I guess that`s a blessing.

Jessica, I don't know if this would work given the weather and your location, etc., but Frisco was born in January and I used to put him in a baby carrier and then put a huge coat over me and a little hat on him. I did that for two weeks, until we went back to Puerto Rico.

Suzi, if you're around, the Living Social deal of the day is for the International Spy Museum here in DC, which CJ might be interested in. Double check the blackout dates!

I second Sparky's rec. It's really fun, but expensive. He will enjoy it.
