Let it snow - some other time?

Man, I keep hoping the weather report will change - I wanted to try to go visit ganeris and athersgeo this weekend, but there's no way with the snow rolling in. They're predicting 8-12 inches near the PA border right now.

And because of traffic and stupidity at the grocery store, I didn't manage to call til after 9, and nobody could answer the phone at that point.

*sulk*

I had a good day, really. Had an entertaining lunch involving stories of the redneck cross-dresser who used to work at SSA. This evening just kind of sucks.

bed now.

*pops up from the snow*

First off, happy birthday, marielogan! *hugs*

So, despite the 6 or 7 inches of snow out there, I did manage power walking of a sort. How, you ask?

Well, first I bundled up to go sweep my car off and assess the snow sticking to the roads. Then I realized I didn't feel like watching anything in my library. So I decided to go to the video store, but the roads looked like crap.

My solution? I walked to Blockbuster and back.

It wasn't that bad - it only took me 15 minutes to get there on foot, and I was very careful. It was also fun to see the looks on people's faces when I stepped in with all the snow sticking to my coat. "I walked," I explained to the girl who stopped restocking DVDs to stare at me.

She laughed. "I figured as much."

But it was a good hike to and back, and after watching one movie, I noticed the snow had stopped, so I went out and swept off the last of the snow, dug out my car and swept off the front walk of our building for good measure.

Yeah, I got some exercise today. I will miss having a grocery store right across the street and having so many options in walking distance when I move out.

Cable's been a bit spotty today, but Net access appears to be steady again. *sigh* And I need to give covielle an idea of what to freaking draw, but now I'm blanking and I know I had something in mind when I bid on it. Sometimes I hate my brain. All this free time and no creativity. Gah.

So I guess I should do something productive so the demons will start throwing out ideas at an inappropriate time. The dishes, maybe. :)

Regarding JLU: "The Once and Future Thing"

"Dad?"

One word, and I'm shrieking at the TV when the "To be continued..." part came up.

I so can't wait for next week. :)
