Cold

Ending the year on a cold note.  It's in the mid-teens right now.

Snow

Woke to three inches on the ground and more falling.  I excavated Mrs. Bristol's car and cleared the windows; she has an appointment this morning.  I'm continuing my week of sloth; I don't have to be in the office until Monday.

Happy Boxing Day!

A quiet Christmas yesterday.  A quieter Boxing Day today.  The kattens wore themselves out with a bow, was fun to watch.

A week off

I'm taking a week off work, I don't go back to the office until after the new year.  We don't have anything planned, I may not leave the house except for errands. 

Gonna be a quiet, relaxing week, and I'm going to enjoy the Hell out of it.

Another year almost done

For some reason I'm feeling old and worn out lately.  Yeah, I was sick all last weekend; but this is more existential than physical.  Guess it's time to once again take a step back and look at what I'm doing and why I'm doing it.  Maybe some thing or things need to be changed.

I told you I was sick

'Nuf said.

I've been ill

Work has been brutal, home not a lot better, and now I'm sick.

Pineapple express

It's pouring ass rain out there.  There's a warm weather system pouring warm, moist air into the Seattle area.  Flood advisories on all the rivers, flood warnings on a few, landslides have closed US-2 over the Cascades, over 2 inches of rain at the house in the last 24 hours.

Taking the day off

Since Mrs. Bristol is out of town, I am taking today off, we have a new garage door being installed.  It's nice because I'm working this weekend.

Some say he's a lost Russian prince

We know him as The Stig.
