A brief addendum.

A plane down in Queens. I know better, but my mind jumps ahead of events. It’s telling how much I (and others) are still affected by September 11. Never before would I have immediately put terrorism at the top of my list of differentials. But I recognize this as a weakness in myself, and am…
The office tends to be a very hierarchical place. I use the term “office” loosely, as in “place where you go each day so they’ll give you your paycheck”, as opposed to the “place where they arrange desks in cubicles in order to maximize efficiency by minimizing privacy”. Anyhow, any established workplace has a definite…
OK, this story starts two years ago when I purchased a Barnes and Noble card during the Christmas holidays. I was book wrapping there a lot to earn money for the cat shelter, and I ended up saving more money than I spent on the card from the discounts I got on meals there. You…
Clueless Wonder, Saturday 6:30 Saturday morning, as I set off for work. At least one of us was content. It was a long Saturday at work. For some reason, there was no net connection all day, so I was forced to manufacture my own amusements between tasks. I took advantage of the temporarily dry morning…
I leave for the new job in an hour. Between the normal Christmas stressors and this I’m a borderline basket case between the ears. I console myself with the fact that nobody expects much out of you on the first day of a job; it’s the *second* day I should be worrying about. Doesn’t help…
The Socialist is now tucked safely away in California. He called late yesterday afternoon, about three hours after he arrived at his grandparents. He did get a room last night, so he was at least well rested. He planned to meet up with a friend of his last night and go see Two Towers again….
That looks like such nice fluffy snow.
We were supposed to get a half inch of wet nasty snow, but it never materialized. I don’t want to see what happens to these crazy drivers around here with any kind of cold precip to deal with.
I think Shay and I were reading your diary at the same time. I’m surprised he ever got through it, with me shouting, "KITTY!" and "PRETTY CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS!" throughout.
Thanks for the photo bonanza! Yeehaw!
It is too bad kitties don’t know how to enjoy snow like dogs do!

Love your pictures! We still haven’t had any snow, just plenty of ice. Glad you made it to your appointment despite the snowy path.
Your sister’s place looks quite elegant. White anything would never make it in my house.

Hey, is that THE ring?
"The nurses were laughing among themselves that two of the other patients, who were "big, brawny men" and lived only ten minutes away from the hospital, had cancelled."
I wonder if proximity makes them value it less?

Beautiful photos! you are a real trooper heading out into the snow like that. It isn’t so bad. It’s mostly the other drivers that scare me.
