I think they'll cancel school tomorrow
For a long time, CPS never EVER closed -- fire and brimstone could be raining from the skies and Walnut Hills was still having exams (okay, more seriously, I remember in maybe 1998 or so there was a storm where it snowed for over 24 hours straight, and CPS stayed open...although bus service was cancelled) -- so I'm always a little taken aback when they do the sensible thing and close.
Would it work for someone who walks rather than runs?
Steph, sorry I never replied--I went out and just got home a little while ago.
Zombies, Run! works for walking just as well as running. There's an interval-training element to it, but it doesn't mean you have to run, you just have to pick up the pace by 20% or more. And, of course, all the chatter from the radio operator is about running.
But it works for running or walking or cycling; on a treadmill or elliptical (using the accelerometer rather than the GPS); and Dana reports that it works on a stationary bike!
My cable company's On Demand selection includes several Charlie Brown holiday movies, but not A Charlie Brown Christmas. Boo.
Yay, we reached a high of 14 degrees today! Woo hoo!
I'm watching The Sound of Music live broadcast on NBC, and it seems like it's designed to maximize the amount of Audra McDonald so far. Which isn't a choice I disagree with, exactly, but maybe it's a sign you shouldn't have cast Carrie Underwood?
Is it really sad when a 95 year old man dies?
It's sad for the world to longer have Nelson Mandela alive in it. So, yeah. Really sad.
I do not understand this "using less oil" as a good thing for popcorn. One of the perqs of working in a movie theater was being able to make ourselves batches of popcorn with double oil. So good.
Thanks for the Zombies Run rec and explanation, Consuela, that sounds worth checking out. Interval training, I am not good at it.
Actually, I guess they're adhering to the stage musical, which I've never seen, rather than the movie.

Yeah. The Reverend Mother has a much bigger part of the first few scenes of the musical than the movie.
I clicked past before, and Maria was singing "My Favorite Things" to the Mother Superior, which was confusing.
Live-on-TV stuff like that makes me weirdly nervous. I want to watch from the hall in case something goes horribly wrong.
