If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm about to pull on the snow pants and head out. Hopefully there'll be some people at the park.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sail, I hate to break this to you, but if you live in the north, there will definitely be six more weeks of winter. At least!

Sun is not up yet so I'm sure my local groundhogs don't have an opinion.

Forgot I have a parental errand to run after work. No swim today, but I can go for a walk at least.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Is there any reason I shouldn't work from home today?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is there any reason I shouldn't work from home today?

Is the CTA fucked up? Metra is. I thought my train was a few minutes early, but actually it was the previous train that was 40 minutes late. Many Metra trains were cancelled.

Can't imagine that there is, aurelia.

What kind of critter will tell us if we are in for 6 more weeks of Hoth? Do Ravens also come to say that Winter is Going?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I know my cold weather is not real cold weather. Still cold to me. Also my office was 52 when I got in. Up to 57 now.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

My question is if we're going to get 6 more weeks of winter. Punxsutawney Phil says yes, Jimmy the Groundhog (just outside of Madison in Sun Prairie, WI) says no. I say Jimmy is a big, fat liar. It's too sunny out today for him to not have seen his shadow this morning.

What I'm afraid of is that what Jimmy really means is, "of course it's not gonna be SIX weeks, it's gonna be TEN weeks". What I find more telling about the timing of Spring coming, is when Sammie starts shedding. She usually starts shedding in the middle of February. Last year she didn't start until March. I'll keep you posted.

Tommyrot, I as far as I know all trains and busses are running. I'm just not feeling a need to prove my hardiness today. I did that in the last blizzard.

Does anyone keep track of how fuzzy the caterpillars were last, um, fall is it? I heard that was actually more accurate than you might think. I'm not sure what species that is, though.
