It's 25 here, which is positively tropical, but there's so much snow on icy roads that there's a snow emergency (level 2; which means that only people who have to be on the roads should be out). Looks like my trip to the gym is going to be replaced by snow shoveling.

Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I just shoveled my walk (mr. flea gets to do the driveway, mwahaha) and it's easy going. Depth varies from 2-6 inches (it was windy over here) but it's wet enough to stick but fluffy enough to be light, and it's quite warm out (compared to most of this week, that is.)
The public library, of course, is open. But I am not working today!!!!1!
And googling suggests whatever the problem is, it needs a pro. Bah! I remember in olden days just relighting the pilot ourselves!
flea, I meant to tell you, I've been seeing paeans to various public libraries through all of these snow days -- at least parents are grateful that you people are always there!
Oh, phew -- they got home, and it was a super easy thing to fix! It just needed water.
Hooray for heat that works!
Looks like I am having a French-Press-at-Sunrise kind of day.
I am waiting outside a sample sale of athletic clothing, on the bidding of my former roommate. But then I think I will go to urgent care and hope to get a diagnosis/script for pinkeye. Then I have a DIFFERENT doctors appointment (sleep doc intake). When all I want to do is be at home in bed.
My plans for today include cleaning out the garage and getting a pedicure. I just haven't decided on the order yet.
I'm supposed to go up to Milwaukee but am struggling to move.
