My cat is sprawled out asleep on the top level of her cat condo (6 1/2 feet up) with her head and right front paw dangling over the front edge. So cute!!

How is your weather, Kathy?

I am really freaking glad the ice totals are shrinking. I'd take snow over ice any day. I can DO SOMETHING about snow, even if it finds me on my roof. Ice, nsm.

I'm cranky. I'm tired of feeling cranky.

I am drinking hot buttered rum and it is nom. I may have to make another cup to take to the dog park with me, since I can see someone is getting antsy again.

The guy in the lane had a very detailed, very nice Hubble Telescope tattoo on his bicep. I asked if he worked with it and "No, I just think it is the coolest thing ever." "I work for Hubble." "NO WAY!!!"

I'm just saying if you fall in love and get married this will be the best meeting story ever. It's like destiny!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Y'all are a bunch of romantics. Me? I'm just like "he's got better defined muscles than me, nice bicep, but I so totally am faster than him at my distance pace!" I think I'm committed to singlehood....

Thundersnow is kinda fun. The light is so blue.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That's crazy, brenda!

If he's not, he should be, sarameg. I mean, I think it's pretty completely awesome, but I'm not getting a tattoo.

Roasted cauliflower sounds seriously nom.

We are having minisnowpocalypse here. The SO took about twice the time getting home, because he slid right past the turnoff to our neighborhood. But he's safely home, I've got the fire going, kettle boiling on the woodstove, and am cooking pasta for the spaghetti sauce that's been going all evening. It has our own tomatoes and basil in it. But no onions of ours because we used them all and no garlic of ours because I stored it badly and it got moldy, boo. But it's simmering and the house smells so good and the SO is home safe, so whoo.

How is your weather, Kathy?

Like sumi was saying, the wind is blowing really loudly out there! I am very pleased that my heater is going full blast, because I love being toasty warm while I hear that howl.

Tom Skilling (the weatherman on WGN TV) is now saying how I-80 is closed near Morris, cars are being abandoned on Lake Shore Drive, and we've got both lightning and thunder.
