Say, isn't today pancake day? I'm socked in with ice and sleet covering snow, but I have power, so I'll be celebrating with blueberry pancakes.
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

Also paczki day! It's hard for me to convince myself to leave my nice warm house and go out in 6 degrees just to get tasty pastries I shouldn't really eat. (Anyone who makes a gluten-free paczki automatically gets a medal, man.)

And cats are on my lap doing a reenactment.
Cleared car, 4 houses sidewalks and one extra open parking space. And already hurting. It's not even heavy snow! After removing the top few inches (basically using shovel as a plow), push room cleared the rest. But my shoulders hate hate hate that kind of motion. Which I know, from vacuuming and mopping, but it is just stupid. Also, I got kinda sweaty.
Also also, I can't really work because I can't reach the laptop because cats. But am also hungry and can't reach food either. Dilemma. But they will get disturbed at 9:30 for a meeting.

UGH, single to negative digits are what I have to look forward to?! I'd change my mind about coming back from Mardi Gras, but I'm already on a plane.

Is Anne around? I am trying to remember what yard we used to knit Joss's baby things. I made mittens from the leftover for a friend and she has lost one. They were very warm, so I wanted to try to get similar yarn.

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.
I've been ordering things through Amazon lately that I could very easily buy at a local store, things like socks. Not unique, Amazon is the only place to ever have these delightful socks at an affordable price, socks - white quarter socks with grey toe and heel just like 85% of the other socks in my sock drawer. Only, you know, with fewer holes in the heels. I've done this enough to make me question if I'm depressed. But then I looked at the outdoor temperature. It's 1 degree Farenheit. Yeah, that's not depression. That's rational thinking.

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

Yeah, I don't want to deal with my car right now, so I pretty much buy stuff from Amazon if I can't find it near work, home or a train stop.

Yeah, we're looking at some single digit temps coming this week here, too. Not NC's usual thIng, even in February.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Federal government is closed today, so here I am. At some point I'll have to go out and remove the snow from my car.
