Shameless plugging for a month or so.
Always my pleasure 
Sorry you're cold, darling Whims! Hey, did I mention that it actually got above freezing here for the first time since my birthday? Felt downright balmy.

DTH - Yup, the game was over so fast they could (and possibly should) have played a second game to fill in the time. Which has happened before, and at the same ground funnily enough.
Rose - Does this mean you might get to see the actual ground, and not just the snow/ice?

Actual ground has yet to appear. When a total accumulation of about five feet has just been sitting in sub-zero temperatures for awhile, it doesn't go away very quickly. All we've gotten so far is a bit of melting of the solid ice on the roads, which has then become thinner, slicker ice when it goes below freezing again at night. And it's supposed to snow again on Saturday.
But when all this melts? Damn will it be green and pretty here!

Morning all!
My coffee pot (poor old thing) is just warming up, so I'll have to settle for some virtual liquid refreshment.

PR, I love Nico's new banner. Great work!
LA, I know it is colder in NY than it is here in DC, but this is our coldest morning of the season. 15 degrees! My poor truck Dora just didn't want to go this morning, and I don't blame her!
DTH, do you have any of those coffee beans dipped in chocolate?

Now I know where all Dublin's snow has gone. It's staying at PR's instead!
We never get snow any more... *sigh*
*presents Mav with chocolate dipped beans*
As The Lady wishes, so it shall be done!

Yes Penguin, five feet. None of it's melted, you see, so it's just built up. There are huge banks of ice on either side of my car where the plow guys decided to dump it. I've been getting very good at parallel parking and I hate it. I have been lovingly calling it "that damn frozen white stuff" and secretly shooting deathglares at everyone who's complained about their mild winter and wishing I could dump them in the seven-foot-high plowbank on the side of the highway I take to work.
Okay, not really.
Well, maybe. A little bit.
I'm really tired of the damn frozen white stuff.
and I love it when my hours of tinkering in photoshop pay off! (doesn't look like it took that long, does it? The problem with matching a pre-existing font is that it takes some tweaking. It took about two hours, I'd say. I always lose track of the exact time, though.)
You know I always like to be doing something, though. I luv messing with banners and avatars! And I need a new vision for either songart or Fireflyart. My muse took a little vacation. I bet she went somewhere warm, too

Or we could swap rooms for a while. Didn't you say before you'd always wanted to visit Ireland?

PR- yeah I hear you. We've only got like 6 feet but we're in the same weather pattern I am so sick of ice and snow everywhere and the sub zero existance Plus the lovely joy that ( once again) the heat in our part of the building has broken.

I would love to visit Ireland! If I were visiting Ireland, however, I would want to hang out with my favorite Hippie 
*packs a large cooler full of snow to send to DTH*
Shipping on that is going to be really high. You know what? I'll just give you a picture. Now this was taken right after the first storm, but very little has changed, except here it looks soft and pretty rather than hard and crusty and frozen.

Don't let the pretty blue sky fool you. It was cold as the Cocytus out. It was less than four days before it snowed again. And then it snowed again four days later. In fact, it's been almost exactly following my work schedule. Ugh!
