Me too! That was super traumatic!

I just saw a schoolbus with snow on its roof.

It snowed?

Well, we have school buses that are painted white on top....

Hee! My coworker had his baby yesterday! So no one wins the pool that people weren't that excited to participate in, anyway -- she wasn't due until the 9th.

It must have been paint. . .there is no snow (yet).

We have a layer of snow, but hopefully the roads will clear up pretty quick this morning.

House guest is still asleep. I'm in my usual working from home zone. I just wish this nagging headache would f off.

I am ridiculously happy that Target FINALLY has the Archer Farms Honey Cinnamon Almonds back in. OMG NOM.

Perkins, I think I sent you a text, or I should say, I tried to send you a text, but if you get it you can ignore it now,

It was so good to see Liese, and meet her DH, and we had great conversation about holidays and families and travel and dogs and architecture and whathaveyou.

This is my favorite part of us. I love our buffista conversations! And since without buffistas, this would have been a dull stuck in the hotel day and instead it was a stellar Art Institute, hangout with peeps day, I echo the sentiment about how much richer my life is for having all y'all in it for the last decade.

Hey Liese is the HiT PO Box your personal also?

Woman Claims to Own the Sun

Angeles Duran, a woman from Spain, has laid claim to the Sun. She argues that there’s no international law to prevent her action:

Angeles Duran, 49, told the online edition of daily El Mundo she took the step in September after reading about an American man who had registered himself as the owner of the moon and most planets in our solar system.

There is an international agreement which states that no country may claim ownership of a planet or star, but it says nothing about individuals, she added.

“There was no snag, I backed my claim legally, I am not stupid, I know the law. I did it but anyone else could have done it, it simply occurred to me first.”
