We're not supposed to get much until this afternoon, but as far as I can tell, the forecast is still 0-12" here, so who's to say what will happen? (I have a good guess, because it's not supposed to get below 35 even overnight tonight.)
Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

Aw, the forecast on the radio this morning was for snow showers and no accumulation (not where I am, higher altitudes). I feel so in tune with you guys!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Our forecast is still saying 10-15" total with "difficult to impossible" travel conditions during the evening commute, but I no longer believe it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I'm working from home and people are being super annoying.
1) ask for information I sent yesterday and that is also SUPER EASY TO GET
2) send me a passive aggressive email about something I missed Monday. Something I could have easily and much faster fixed yesterday when IN THE OFFICE and YOU SPOKE WITH ME.
3) the same person from #2 is in a record that I need in to fix, FOR THEM. I have emailed them to get out of it, so that I can fix it. Nothing. Are they on the company IM? No... of course not.

So I know I'm old because I called to order a glass recycling container for the me place...and we just throw EVERY DAMNED RECYCLABLE in our big wheeled recycling bin that's already there.
No separating. No driving glass to the glass recyclers.
SO. EXCITE.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The snow is starting to stick now, and we have thundersnow. So I guess it's a little more serious than I thought.

Thundersnow is always serious!
And single-stream recycling is exciting.

Thundersnow!
Yay, Strix! You know, when I was a kid we had a heavy metal plate with a handle that we used to crush aluminum cans so we could store them easily before taking them to be recycled; these days I can have up to 10% of my recycling actually be non-recyclable, someone else sorts it, and I am sooooo casual about it. Progress, I suppose.

I had a wall-mounted can crusher for years!
I am taking the last batch of glass recycling to the recyclers today. I'm psyched I'll not have to do it again...for a very long time hopefully.
We're getting down to the wire. We move next Thursday and the bath, laundry and kitchen floors are getting replaced tomorrow. Giant PITA. I don't understand why he can't wait til we're out on the 15th. He's getting rent for the whole month and he hasn't listed the place yet.

I think this was a thing my dad made or salvaged from somewhere. Literally just a heavy square of metal with a handle sticking up. It was pretty exciting for us little kids to get to use!
ETA Ugh. You'd think he'd wait, but you do have to take contractors when you can get them.
