Heat-pocalypse next week has now become serious enough for a Special Statement from the National Weather Service.

Snow-pocalypse in progress (2)
Dec. 21st, 2008 12:47 amIt looks visually like it should be thicker -- my footprints from last time have filled in, for instance -- but the tape measure applied to the deck says the same thing as before: 5 inches.
Snow-pocalypse in progress
Dec. 20th, 2008 10:31 pmJust took a tape measure out onto our deck, and it's 5 inches deep.
This has been a week.
Jan. 9th, 2004 05:58 pmLessee...
* Job interview scheduled, then cancelled. (Now rescheduled.)
* Friend arriving from out of town scheduled for pickup at the airport, then cancelled. (Now rescheduled.)
* E-mail from a favorite writer/novelist who said he found me by googling the title of his book and finding my flattering (but heartfelt) comments about him.
* E-mail from another writer who let me see a pre-pub draft of an article, and asked for my comments. I've now seen the published form of the article, and he took my suggestions nearly verbatim. I suddenly feel like a speechwriter for the President on State of the Union night -- "That sentence! I wrote that!"
* E-mail from yet a third writer well-known (nay, famous) for not replying to his e-mail, thanking me for a pointer I sent him.
* Oh, yeah, that whole ice storm thing.
* Yesterday, the most personally significant legal hearing I've had to attend.
* Learning yesterday night that my former headmaster at my old prep school, the man who performed our wedding ceremony, died on 2 Jan. I learned this because his grand-daughter has an LJ that I found.
* Posting to an online forum about how I met the hostess. Linking in that post to the site of the common friend who was the online link through whom we met, one for whom I still have deep feelings. Having her read her referral logs, send me e-mail, and generally let me know she's back in the country after having moved away (although I already knew that).
Stressed yet? :)

Danger, Will Robinson!
Jan. 7th, 2004 12:37 amTo my Seattle-area friends:
I just went out with my dog Sarah for a short walk.
I had hoped that when the snow turned to rain, it would melt.
That's somewhat what's happening, but only somewhat. Weather.com is reporting it's 32 degrees Fahrenheit out there, which means the rain is water in the air, but freezes on the ground.
It's an ice storm.
All our driveways are coated in ice right now. As are the cars. As are the trees.
The Seattle Times reported over a 100 traffic accidents yesterday. Between how slick I expect the roads will be, combined with potential tree hazards (tree limbs falling under the weight of the ice), I would recommend extreme caution in the morning.
(And I'm supposed to pick up![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pecunium at SeaTac tomorrow... though not 'til 3:30p, thankfully.)
Maybe I'm just being a worry wart (probably) but as Sgt. Esterhaus would say on Hill Street Blues, "Let's be careful out there."
