Because we have wind chill temps of 19 degrees - I will not attempt to shovel the end of the driveway.

Shopping has been postponed until at least Wednesday.  We shall see.

OW!!!!! [Insert colorful language here.]

Head vibes for BK. I used to do that frequently in the kitchen — but mostly during my California years, for whatever reason. Somehow I eventually learned to watch myself around the cabinets, and simply stopped, and I haven’t done it in maybe twenty years.

I remember some real whoppers and ending up with a nice lump. But I don’t recall ever breaking the skin.

Monday morning greetings!  Snow continues here.  We don't have huge, crippling accumulations, but just enough to be annoying.

Well, we’ve got a couple of inches already, but it’s supposed to be accumulating all day today and some of tomorrow. I think they’re saying eight to twelve inches in my area.

Today is also the birthday of Victor Herbert!

And here's my favorite Victor Herbert number, from Babes in Toyland! Glen MacDonough hardly ever rose to any heights as a lyricist, but I find his lyrics for this song in faux-Irish dialect full of yearning and romance.

This is Elizabeth Futral conducted by John McGlinn from his unreleased recording:

All the messes are cleaned up.  I need to take the recyclables to the basement and pick up Saturday's mail.

In fact, I realized that so many facts have just flown by while I (like an idiot) was writing an email, that I'm making a note to listen to it again later with no distractions.

I'm up, I'm up - maybe seven hours of sleep, but something from Gelson's was perhaps a bit rancid because my tummy was upset and I had to get up and pop about three Pepcids throughout the night.
