Awwww Finn and spidey. I didn't get to see the pic because you adopted him so quickly.

Flea, I am so sorry about the house!

My workplace will likely go to full open concept when we move to a new building in 2017. But I have half a plan to not be working there by then. If I lost my office, I'd quit or negotiate to working from home full time. And several of my colleagues have said same.

I really don't understand why people still think open concept is a good idea. It is not a good idea! I share an office with two people, which is bad enough. On the upside, I do learn a fair amount about what's going on with other teams....

Aw, Spiderman. I realized none of the nearby cats are speaking to me, so no.

While doing my errands, my boots gave me terrible blisters! I don't know why. These are not the new boots, but are boots I have worn many times for walking decent distances. Ow.

Also, I chipped up many square feet of 2-3" thick ice, but not nearly all of it. I apologized to people walking by.

I went and had a massage and then hit TJs on the way home. I may be mostly done for the day, but it is too gorgeous to stay inside. I may have to pull out some of the patio furniture so I can sloumge out there

I feel like I should do more things out and about before I'm snowed in again, but meh. Maybe the movie theater will be open tomorrow or Monday and I can do that.

Looking forward to seeing pictures of the kitty! Yay!

We have had a variety of office configurations. At the moment I have my own office. When we moved into a space that was one large open space with just the 2x4 studs awaiting walls we ended up never putting the walls up because we enjoyed the openness. I'm not sure which I prefer.

I am a little flummoxed. To honor H's "I hate Hallmark holidays," I didn't trouble to get him even a card, at which he always makes that "this is so stupid" face.

So, this morning, who hands me a heart-shaped box of truffles? I mean, chocolate, yay! But this box--my heart stopped. Jilli would love it. The lid is covered with padded crushed silk, the kind of box I'd pay money for at a boutique, or at a clean secondhand or antiques shop. He knows me well. And now I feel bad for not getting him anything--I should go find my watercolor postcards and paint him something gloriously schmoopy. That'll show 'im.

Aw, Bev.

Aren't movie theaters always open? Do I only think that because I've never lived where there's snow?

Have hit BevMo and am ready to break out my chocolates to be paired with wine&whiskey&cheese. Whiskey first or last? I'm thinking last.

Woke from a brief nap incubating a nasty headache. Guess that's the incoming front.

Aren't movie theaters always open?

I mostly wonder about tomorrow -- they're shutting down public transportation, but most people will probably stay home, so an employee could drive if need be, and of course there are plenty of potential customers in walking distance.

You could call and ask, probably.
