Conga-rats, **Butters** , just remember that nekkid bacon-frying can be dangerous, as **swampy** will tell you. We have no snow, no rain, no nuffink apart from cold and grey skies. There is a possibility we might get some snow later in the week but of course it only takes a millimetre or two of the white stuff to bring the entire country to a halt and cause widespread panic. Luckily I have plenty of TP in the house and the cats have a spare bag of cat litter, so we can withstand at least 25mm on the white stuff. ---

Wow, BooFae, _ **25 whole mm** _?!?!?!? :eek: šŸ˜ƒ Near as I can tell, we have \*maybe \*an inch on the cold surfaces, like the railing and the shed roof. Parts of the driveway that I can make out in the gloom are white, but the monster puddle is there and dark. When I let Higgs out, teensy-tiny flakelets were still falling, but I think itā€™s the end of precip. Itā€™s below freezing, and we might creep a few degrees above that mark before the day is over. I donā€™t have to go anywhere, and canā€™t anyway since Iā€™m without a vehicle and nothing is within walking distance (no, I wouldnā€™t go 3 miles to WaWa and the dollar store) so I donā€™t much care what itā€™s doing out there. \*\*FCD \*\*is off to work. The dishwasher is washing dishes, except for the few that wouldnā€™t fit, and those are on the drying rack. Iā€™ve had some 'nanner bread for breakfast. All of the critters have been fed. Iā€™ll haul the laundry downstairs and maybe do a load or two - itā€™ll be a few days before I can hang anything out, forcing me to use the dryer, alas! Iā€™m going to do a load with the afghan and lap robes so I can get them bagged up and out of the way. Last night, I figured out how to make the little bunnehs for the baskets. Yay! Iā€™ve got to put contrasting trim on a few more baskets, then Iā€™ll start making bunnehs. Iā€™ve got enough time, I might even make some chicks or ducks. We shall see. Onward to a Happy Tuesday!! ---

Outside of the Scottish Highlands, we are not prepared for snow at all. Not even when we know it might be coming. I, on the other hand, have a stock of TP so I consider myself prepared for anything. Forgot to mention, I am off on my hols to San Diego in 65 days! Woot! ---

I was born in San Diego! But, alas, you canā€™t make a pilgrimage to the site of my first home there because itā€™s now a freeway. Nor can you visit the adorable little studio apartment I had in Coronado because, alas, itā€™s been torn down - in fact, it was in pretty sad shape when I lived there, but one can tolerate a lot at 21, right? Itā€™s been nearly 40 years since I left there - Iā€™d love to see it again. Could you maybe stop by DC enroute and hide me in one of your cases? _PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE???_ ---

Good Morninā€™ Yā€™all! Up and caffienatinā€™. _YAWN_ ā€˜This 35 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 56 and sunny for the day. Not too shabby. Since I have to spend a lot of time drivinā€™ today Iā€™m glad thereā€™s no precip. Ok, thatā€™s all I got. I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. I also need to commence purtification for irk as I need to be travelinā€™ on by seven-thirty this a.m. Le Sigh. Happy Tuesday Yā€™all! ---

Blurf. Ermagerd! Thereā€™s an _ **INCH** _ of snow at the VunderLair! Do I have to go shovel off the roof? Irking from home today, but not because of snow. My orifice building is being remodeled, and the contractors are testing fire alarms again. :mad::rolleyes: ---

Happy Toosday! Itā€™s cold, just frigginā€™ cold. Enough for me to cuss the dog because he stands there while I have the door open deciding if he wants to go out or not. Then after he gets out there he takes his damn good old time coming back in. We didnā€™t get much snow, maybe a few inches. Sah-son went out in the early hours and shoveled. I think we are that family, the ones on the block that everybody thinks is weird because we only come out at night. Congrats **Butters!!!** ---

Blurf. Too cold and lazy to go out for coffee, so Dr Pepper it is. Much to be worked on today, and Iā€™m meeting friends tonight. And I have another !@#%%^ cut on one of my fingers! My right-hand thumb this time. And on the #@%! pad too. ā˜¹ My fingers keep going out and getting cut. Donā€™t they understand that I need them to play instruments. Darn me. ---

Howdy from MickeyDā€™a in beautiful downtown Blakely, Jawja! Just as Iā€™m gettinā€™ into Blakely I get a call from the person Iā€™m supposed to meet informinā€™ me sheā€™s sick. :mad: Ok, sorry sheā€™s sick but she coulda called earlier as obviously she knows my number. :mad: So here I sit with an hour to kill before I have to go anywhere else. Oh well, I can irk from anywhere so I guess Iā€™ll read/answer/ignore emails and such for the next hour. ---

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, [Mike W](https://www.flickr.com/photos/74663312@N08/16194889759/) passed on to live under mattresses in the great landfill in the [del]sky[/del] ground this week.

I was listening to the radio this morning. There was an interview with an opera singer whoā€™s singing in a production of the opera Die WalkĆ¼re. (Thatā€™s the one with ā€œRide of the Valkyriesā€ in it, a la Bugs Bunnyā€¦ šŸ˜‰ ) Iā€™m drinking a club soda and thinking about music projects.
