I always feel bad for my neighbor and his dogs in bad weather. He has a couple of whippets or mini-greyhounds or whatever they are. Lazy wee lapdogs, very high strung and they eventually decided to like me. Loki probably weighs more. They have NO body fat or fur, and I'll hear him out back, exhorting them to PEE DAMNIT! I'm surprised he hasn't set up a litterbox/pee parlor in the basement.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Instead of a snow day tomorrow the theatre I'm working in is putting us up in a hotel tonight. It's a working snowpocalypse for me.
I was trying to get my boss to just tell me not to come in tomorrow, but he was all "We'll wait and see." He's always skeptical about these snopocalypse weather predictions. So I'll have to get up early tomorrow and send him an email: "Yep, the governor said to stay indoors" or whatever before I can climb back into bed. It's crazyness!!
Write it tonight, roll over and hit send when you hit the mute on the alarm. God knows I've done it.
Blizzard continues to rage, drifts may reach 6 to 8 feet later tonight

Numerous reports have come in to the WGN Weather Center describing Northbound Lake Shore Drive as "gridlock". One motorist claims he has been on the drive for over 3 and 1/2 hours.
WTF where they doing on Lake Shore Drive in the first place? Guy had to have gotten on Lake Shore Drive at 3:30. Idiot.
OK, I've had Baltimore's near worst. I don't want that.
