Snow on the roads this morning. I'm glad I left the house 15 minutes early, visibility is going down fast out there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Thought about taking a sick day or working from home today but decided to come in for a meeting. Meeting has been rescheduled.
Ah well.
Have decided to focus on the part of my dream where JDM helped me with my luggage (not a euphemism, literally I had several pieces of luggage and he carried one for me. Before the part where they all got lost. Who has a check out time of quarter to ten? Not a prophetic dream, I'm fairly certain, just an annoying one)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've decided I'm going to boycott General Motors for selling red cars without "Merry Christmas" painted on them.

I can't even with the war on Christmas.
Has anyone here played with the New York Times virtual reality viewer and app? [link] We were just passing the viewer around and, while it was very cool, I couldn't stand up since I still have balance issues from vertigo.
I am also wondering if the Supremes case on the ACA and birth control will get mooted at my workplace.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm in a Holiday Inn Express, and I'm pretty sure I just had the Burrell family Christmas breakfast! Eggs, sausage, cinnamon roll. Nom.
Yum! Now I want Christmas breakfast dang it. But since I just had breakfast -- egg scrambled with last night's leftover braised sprouts -- I guess it'll have to wait.

I'm choosing to interpret this dream to mean that you are ready for JDM to appear in your life and help you lose all your baggage.

One think I do love about snow storms is watching the snow flakes blow around the big glass windows in my office.

You can be in charge of my dream interpretations, Burrell. And breakfasts, for that matter.
Ooh, you work in a giant snowglobe, Connie? Nice.

We are supposed to get our first snow tonight. I am SO not ready. I need to rake and bag up the leaves in the front of the house. Our snow shovel is going to need to be replaced soon.
I need to have a chimney person come out to check our fireplace and see if it is safe to light fires. First time I haven't had a gas fireplace in a long time.

I hadn't thought of it that way, but you're right. It's really cool when it's dark and the street lights in the parking lot are on.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Share away, shrift. It's more interesting than me going on about this trip to Houston tomorrow. I looked at hotels last week--they were expensive. I finally got around to booking one today--still expensive. There's got to be a special event of some sort.
-t, that is a disappointing dream no matter how you look at it. Bait and switch.
You mountain folks can keep the snow. It's raining here, and that's enough precipitation for me at the moment.
And I have cramps, which ups the cranky to level 10.
