Rain

It hasn't snowed yet. It is supposed to tomorrow. Please snow, Portland. Please, please snow.

Rain and sleet

It is getting colder! The weather people are calling for snow, and I couldn't be more excited!

I am planning on getting a sled and ensuring that cocoa is well stocked. Oh, and I need to buy firewood!

The wonderful thing about snow in Portland is that the city shuts down. If there is less than an inch downtown, nobody has to go to work. I have five paid snow days planned in my year, just in case!

Send snow please

If you live on the East Coast, please send snow. If you live in the Midwest, please send snow. It rained today and was otherwise overcast and annoying.

I went on another job interview today. This make three, if you're counting. I am pretty sick of this process. Now I wait; I should hear back right before Christmas. So either, you get coal, or nice gifts all around.

My boss is a whiner.

Does your boss whine? Do you have to talk him down from freaking out? It's the same kind of energy I use with my daughter but with none of the cuteness.

Grey and cold


Brrr. It's cold outside.

This is the nicest gift anyone has ever given me. We'll know if it works if I am still sane in March.
