Not cross-posting that anywhere because it's going to be part of that string-of-vidlets project I mentioned yesterday.

.

I maybe included that to justify yet another weather post, to the effect of:

- Blizzard all the day, wind continues all the night. This is what I woke up to this morning:







(The icicle shot is from a few days ago.)




- I have power and Internet, but nowhere to go.

- Today topped off a seasonal snow total for D.C. higher than any other on record.

- Tomorrow the office is closed again, making this (according to my former department head) the longest stretch the federal government has remained closed in history.

I definitely chose the right year to come down here. Even if I'm still mourning the fact that I have to work if I want to get paid while most of my coworkers shovel deal with fallen trees play in the snow with their kids.

That looks like a fine excuse to spend the day curled up in bed with a good book. :)

Or with a laptop and work - but still, curling up is possible!

No fair! When we have snowfalls of comparable depth up here, everyone still has to go to work. (And we had quite a few of those during the times I actually worked in an office and commuted via subway or car.)

Hmph. Yeah, I'm betting my old company hasn't closed for any of this. Well, aside from the fact that LI didn't get any snow last weekend. Here, the Metro's not running except limited underground, so I can't imagine commuters are doing well. Whereas the teleworkers and freelancers are just screwed. :)

Wow, things definitely look whooshy there! I think they're right to close the office, considering all those zombies. Keep your machete nearby!
