9597 – Wednesday
Had to get up extra early this morning, to be sure I could make it in to work on time. Snow has melted to form extra-scary and slick ice on the roads and sidewalks outside.
The replacement Clie I got back in march died – bidding for a new one on ebay. I’ll have to make a point to recover my old data – shouldn’t be a problem, since I last backed it up a day or two ago. The only hassle will be re-installing my 3rd party stuff. Astronomer, isilo reader, and tealpaint are really the only items I’ll want back right away. If those bids don’t go through, I may look into a Nokia N810 or possibly a Asus EEE for the same cost as a Birthday Prezzie to myself.
Not a great day today, but tomorrow will be better. Off to a rough start, and a really rough time at work about 4pm. BHK collected more estimates on the Love Cube’s repair, and remains doubtful that insurance will pay the bill. Chris is looking into options on her side of things.
BHK made calzones – her first attempt, and they were delicious. (Mine had broccoli, veggie meatballs, and assorted cheeses in there). Technically, I guess they were stromboli, as she put a little sauce inside the dough, but not a huge amount. I still had some on the side to dip into.
We watched the first half of the Heartbreak Kid, and now we’re calling it a night.
Until later, dear journal.

A wave of low pressure will continue to bring snow and sleet to the area today. A brief lull in the precipitation is expected this afternoon… before a second stronger low pressure wave will bring a wintry mix of precipitation tonight and Wednesday. Precipitation will be mainly in the form of snow and sleet this evening… but a change over to freezing rain and rain is expected overnight as warmer air is drawn into the system. Temperatures will remain in the lower 30s Wednesday allowing for the rain to freeze on some surfaces.
Total snow and sleet accumulations through Tuesday night will be 2 to 4 inches and total ice accumulations for Tuesday night through Wednesday morning will be one to two tenths of an inch.
Didn’t get together with Todd today – the weather was too bad to drive to meet him. We made it home ok – all of the soft poweder of the morning had a layer of slick ice over the top of it. I’m glad that we managed to see him yesterday! It sounds like he had a good time checking out the monuments – I’m sure that they were extra nifty-looking with the layers of snow everywhere.
Had Pigs in Blankets for dinner, with string beans on the side. pretty nummy!
Watched some Psych (Sort of lackluster episode about firemen/arsonists) and part of The Beast before hitting the sack – until later, dear journal!

9594 – Sunday
Went out with Larry this morning to have the green truck looked at (no relation to the element issues) – It was a nice guy’s morning out, even though we were stymied at every attempt to get the truck…
snownewtcam: Newton and Pye check out the snow. Pye was trying to attack snowflakes hitting the window and Newt was just amazed!
