It's 35F and foggy here. I'm not hearing a lot of traffic on the nearby road, which is a bit ominous. But work is on, and there don't seem to be a lot of closings on the news. So I'm gonna work on the theory that the usual commuters are having a bit of a lie in.

Sinuses in full revolt. No obvious congestion, but 5 minutes in the cold and I now have the worst headache in a while.
I think I'm going back to bed. Or at least back to the couch with a hot towel for my face.

erin, how about an online gift card, like to iTunes or Amazon? You should be able to do those with a valid email address.

That's a good one, Theo.
I think I'm taking another hot shower. And then a horizontal surface.

Poor sara! Feel better.
House is cold this AM. I need to locate shoes, keys etc so I can go to the pool.
My student teacher starts today. I am full of ambivalence. Not about her, but about everything.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I looked out the window and saw snow, so was very relieved to look closer and see it was just a very little bit. I think it's currently raining, though, so I am just as glad not to have any need to go anywhere.

I woke up with a severe coughing jag -- I sound like Camille dying of consumption, if she had been a college linebacker. Being upright for a while and OTC cough medicine kicking in has helped a bunch. It's now been a week with this cold. (Really, no fever, tummy distress, aches and pains. Not flu: cold. Feh.)

Cold suck. Almost worse because there is really nothing to be done about them! Ugh.

Poor, Theo. I just want to stick you in a Dim Sum steamer until you're all better.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
But then she would be cooked! We don't want a cooked Theo!
