I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Matt, maybe it was a neighbor who realized it had been mis-delivered?

I'm prepping for a baby shower later this afternoon. And mildly wondering if I should watch some of the Seahawks game if only so I can understand my FB feed.

Adventures in commuting: Light slushy snowfall last night, fogbound freeway this morning. But God gave Americans the right to drive 80 mph on the freeway, so that's what my neighbors are going to do. Thank heaven this was a Sunday morning, and not Monday. Though I'd have taken the long, back way to work if it was.

Croissant:

Just checked a bunch of traffic cameras. Several of them are only showing grey with a faint hint of roadway. Yay, winter.

Watching the fog ebb and flow up the hillside outside the office is like being on the shore of a very odd ocean.

Snowing a little here! First time I've seen it snow here at all this winter.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

We're getting our first snow of the winter today too. It's been snowing lightly all morning, and barely sticking at all. We're supposed to get 5-8 inches on Friday, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh jeez, I just looked at our long-range forecast, and it shows 8-12 inches of snow next weekend, which would give us all such bad flashbacks! That's when we had the first big snow last year, too. And then it just never stopped.

Yeah, not sticking here. But succeeding in unmotivating me completely. Refilling the water bottle and getting up to change the radio station from the most painfully awkward and dry local cooking show are about as accomplished as I'm managing.

It is wise to use your limited energy for this. They are The Worst!

I'm getting up to go to the store in a minute (TOILET PAPER MILK !!!! not really...need groceries for the week) but mostly because I'm really cold and I can blast the heat in the car more easily than I can at home.

I'm wearing a blanket of cats, so I'm actually a little too warm....
