shawnp0wers No snow really (I mean, there’s lots on the ground), but this morning we woke up to a nice coating of ice. I actually like freezing rain, it’s almost magical the way it puts a complete coating of ice on things. Yes, it makes for dangerous travel. I realize that. Still, it’s really nifty to see happen.

The weird people being me of course. It turns out, I’m rather difficult to buy for. My hobbies are rather limited, and if I want something throughout the year, I generally just buy it.

I need to concentrate on a few things, and it happens to be the end of the year. So: Resolution Time. Here are mine: 1. Blog-a-Day … Read more
