We have about 9 inches of snow on the ground and it's still coming down. I think we should avoid sleet and ice, though, which is good.

Tim was supposed to have his follow-up PET scan tomorrow morning to see if confirm that the cancer is gone, but that definitely ain't happening. They were able to move the PET scan to Wednesday morning, which should be doable. And then we'll meet with the oncologists Wednesday afternoon to go over the ([damn well better be] excellent, spectacular) results.

I don't want to be reading about my friends slipping and falling on ice! Please be careful out there.

About nine or ten inches of snow, and still falling. Still have power (knock on wood), which I wasn't expecting. It'll probably be a long while before my street is plowed, but I don't need to go to campus until Tuesday.

Extra (insulated) bubble wrap for all my beloved Buffistas. Be careful out there, and take a buddy with you if you can.

Only a bit cold here today...we kind of welcome it. But this is our reward for July. (Pops a little bubble wrap)

The university finally announced they're closed tomorrow, after the county closed the roads to all non-emergency traffic.

We have bupkiss in the way of falling weather.

I woke up with body aches and a raging sore throat. Tylenol, hot tea, a blankee and a nap, toast and scrambled eggs and another nap, and I felt a lot better. I had yet another nap with another dose of Tylenol and I'm having naked toast and scrambled eggs again. By morning I should be all better.

Those of you upon whom weather is falling and freezing, be careful and may your heat, phones, power and so on be strong and steady.

I have no excuse for being as lazy as I have been all weekend except that I am, as always, tired. I did do a few things though - made an appointment to give blood on Friday, bought a copy of 1984 (2, actually, digital and audio so I can really concentrate) to read for a book club meeting at the the bookstore near work that I have been so unsuccessful at just dropping into (conveniently scheduled for a day I am in the office and late enough for me to get dinner in between), and started on the March 2025 issue of Ellery Queen, which is measurable if small progress on the great magazine backlog.

Hang in there, guys. Here in S Texas the freezing rain has cleared out but we're going to be down in the teens overnight for days.

Final snow total according to official measurements is 15". We decided to hire a snow removal guy to take care of the sidewalk for us, fingers crossed he does a decent job because the last thing I need is to be ticketed by the village.
