Report from DC: Maybe an inch or two of snow with a thin layer of ice mixed in. Schools closed, Federal government on two-hour delay.
I slept in for one extra hour. Traffic was very light, and I was only about 45 minutes later than my normal time.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

JZ, I'm sorry. I wish you could have a snow day today with a hot beverage and a good book instead of dealing with your office today.
TCG hasn't tried to start shoveling yet because the wind is blowing everything around too much.

JZ I'm sorry you have to move.
It's started snowing here a little bit.
So I did have a cold, now I have a mild ear and sinus infection. So now I have antibiotics. I have tomorrow and Thursday off, the doctor said - drink lots of fluids, rest, take the meds, if I'm not improved by Friday go back.

No wonder you were feeling so whack, askye. Glad the doctor was able to help.
ION, I have achieved bagels, at least. One of our advising groups had a little shindig in the hallway for their students and had leftover bagels.

Yeah the Nurse Practioner was like "well your ears aren't about to burst but they are red and swollen". Which i guess is comforting.

I'm doing yoga at home--or at least starting to get to a place where what I'm doing can be called yoga. It's depressing to realize that an outside observer would not be able to tell that I'm doing my damnedest to raise my torso up off the floor. But I'm not getting any more limber just lying there and bitching about my lack of strength and flexibility. Gotta get the wheels off the tarmac before I can fly.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Flexibility is really slow thing to increase. It also is something people are born with or not, in order to increase it and keep it, you have to stretch everyday.
I don't have it and it takes daily stretching for weeks to see any improvement.
