From my workplace I can see the start of salt mines that extend under Lake Erie- soon we will be basking in salt. We're required by law to wear it on top of our heads in place of hats.

I live in a neighborhood full of very old Italian people. When it snows, they don't go outside so there's no need for the sidewalks or streets to be cleared. How nice for them.

i'm not opening today. people should really be out now buying too many loaves of bread and gallons of milk and not worrying about used records.

That is my kind of thinking, Scott. I love stocking up and battening down.

have to check the candle situation though...might need to make one trip to walgreens down the road. plus,at walgreens i could stock up on emergency magazines.

I'm doing the same with cigarettes, wine, coffee, chicken and cans of coconut milk, and pottering little house projects. Cannot wait.

this is fine and all but dealing a million savages in the supermarket who are freaking out and hording 10 loaves of bread and 6 gallons of milk is the fucking worst

i brought work home with me too. my record cleaner and a big stack of reggae records that need to be cleaned, graded, and put up on ebay.

i mean how much more are you eating then normal just because there is snow on the ground

Girl, you are weird. :) If this isn't a big flop in NYC, I will just be watching the library DVDs I've been renewing for 2 months.

man i remember working at the corner store in philly during a bad blizzard in the 90's and me and the wawa across the street were the only stores open on rittenhouse square and then the wawa closed and i actually saw a big crowd of people at the door of the wawa turn and stare at my little gourmet store. i think i screamed. they all came stomping in and bought whatever wasn't nailed down. sold a lot of brie that day.
― scott seward, Friday, 8 February 2013 16:40 (eleven years ago) link
I'm not eating more but it would be normal to need to go out for an ingredient or a fresh veg or something, and obv I won't want to do that so I should have everything on hand. Like I just realized that I'm out of ginger and lemongrass so I'll prob take a difft route home so I can stop by a veg market.

it's the Sandy effect i see around these parts making people extra crazy. but that was i once in a lifetime event. we've had plenty of snowstorms people, the Chinese place will be delivering like always and the corner pub will still be open.
― ω (carne asada), Friday, 8 February 2013 16:45 (eleven years ago) link
The first neighborhood pizza place just opened 5 blocks away from me so maybe I can have that delivered if starvation threatens, how exciting.

I should have bought more wine but it's snowing too hard to go out again now, I think. Maybe later on foot when I need to walk the hound. Have food and other supplies. Thinking this might be a multi-movie type weekend. Already feeling a little stir crazy though.

I have camped out on the couch with two pillows and three blankets. I do not anticipate leaving this spot for a very long time.

Here in the Cleve we're not getting any snow to speak of, just a dusting, but the winds blowing by my 15th-floor window must be 40mph.

So this is the real thing (lots of false alarms the last few years). The guy across the road has been shoveling for the past hour--I still haven't made attempt one. The snow's past halfway up my tires and still falling fast.
