[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!

Scary moving discovery. Each shelf of books fills about 2 boxes (the kind you get from the liquour store). In total, we have 31 shelves of books.

Egads.

There's a truck outside in our parking lot that is almost completely buried by snow. I tried to get out on the deck to take a picture, but the snow is piled about 18 inches up our deck door, and deeper still in spots near the edge of the balcony. No go with the pic.

Aw, Dani. Everyone should have a cosy lie-in once in a while. Maybe you'll have lazy children!!

Such is the curse of the reader. You could get rid of some...

Rafmun, the drift against my back door is probably about armpit high. I don't expect to be using that door anytime soon.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Oh, that was mostly made up by loudmouth neocons, a few rednecks joined in. It was never very widespread in any practical way.

Conan spent the whole week doing "Canadian things". I suspect he and his staff just stepped in it as far as doing one that was an actual sensitive topic.

Jumpin' Jimminy!

Weather network just reported Halifax at 58cm, with 20-25cm more expected yet.

Tomorrow, however, is supposed to be sunny - should be a might pretty outside if we don't get any freezing rain b/w now and then...which apparently is a possibility.

I wonder if that's at Shearwater or at the Airport, because the Airport usually gets more snow than the city. It does look like a lot of snow, but it's so hard to say since it's so blowy. I can still see patches of sidewalk outside of my house.

They're reporting it as from Shearwater. I think the airport is completely closed down. Last I heard, they'd stopped plowing the runways.

Hmmm - double posted goodness. Wonder how that happened? Itchy mousey finger, I guess.

70cms of snow. This is a bit much!

Just went outside for a tiny walkabout - didn't get very far, lemme tell ya. Snow drifts taller than I blocked progress in both directions on Brunny street. Out back, neither door would open, though I did get the garage door to go up - to be met with a wall of snow about a foot high right across the opening.

And it isn't slowing down.
