BLIZZARD!

helen is fierce

snow makes me so happy

yeah it is pretty nice to be inside and warm and check out the snow falling down.
i kinda hope the trains are suspended so i can justify not opening the store

I am not sticking my head anywhere, probly gonna watch Paths of Glory.

(also i have no one to eat my enhanced cookies with)

NO, we do not need suspended trains bcuz I wanna see Abbas Kiarostami's first film @ Lincoln Ctr tomorrow night!

aw, i'd eat cool cookies with you if i could!

should become permanent policy imo

CNN's reporting on the blizzard from pvd

the dog is waiting for us to go to bed so he can steal away and take a furtive dump somewhere, he refuses to go outside cuz the wind and snow lightning keep breaking his concentration

I wish link wray's "ice people" was on youtube

CNN is reporting that cars are being towed in boston. in boston! imagine that!

maybe I should just go to bed so the dog can do his clandestine business

damn theres a lot of snow outthere

maria with a shovel! i cackle at her. but i'll help i'll help. just need a little more coffee.

I don't know where my car went this morning. Nowhere to be seen!

its in there somewhere.

this was really just a storm here. not a blizzard. i could hang out on the front porch last night. blizzards are scarier. you can't see anything in a blizzard. it was windy though.

i appreciate the encouragement, but i still have my doubts xp

i like to call it a "wallop" xp

yeah it dumped a ton of snow really fast! pretty impressive.

i can't really tell how much we got because it's already blown all over the place. my car doesn't look too buried tho.

8 or 9 lousy inches in NYC, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

For a few years I worked on Christmas Eve and drove the 70-ish miles home after the store closed. Every time, it was basically through weather like last night. Maybe not quite as bad, but close? Snowflakes coming at you in the high beams, I haven't driven in 14 years but I can still see that.

NSTAR's power outage map for southeastern Mass:

bus outta here pushed back by an hour, so inconvenienced.

there is an *insane* amount of snow outside right now

bruins still plan on hosting the lightning at 7 pm this eve. if you can get there, might be a good day to get cheap tix.

Uh I just tried to walk the dog and take the garbage out back and it was up to at least my mid thighs. I had to pick up the dog under one arm, had the garbage in the other hand and couldn't even make it 1/2 way through the parking lot before I gave up and turned around. Can hardly see the car tbh.

Ha not quite. He put the breaks on as soon as he looked out the door. Not a fan of snow, this one.

Yeah I had to carry my dog TO the heavy snow because the supers threw that chemical ice melt all over the sidewalks after they shoveled this morning. Stupid stuff burns her paws.

Aw man a couple years ago that happened to B and all of a sudden he started limping and crying and I didn't know what was wrong adn it was the SADDEST thing. There still aren't really any cars except emergency vehicles out and people are just walking in the street. Am gonna venture out in a bit. Will take pictures.

I need to get Bucket a new set of those little balloon-like dog shoes, then she can tromp right over those melt pellets.

She's pretty snow-positive for a chihuahua mix-- I guess it's the dachshund blood in her.

it's still kind of snowing/blowing around here and the sun is shining so brightly that the air is basically full of swirling glitter. I could watch this shit all day.

moar photos plz

(now that i know you're all safe and sound)

just shoveled for like an hour. now going to drink a huge cup of tea.

Oh noooo Internet just went out.

Went out. People are just roaming the streets. There's an impromtu dance party happening in the square down the road and people are building a giant snowman. Everyone is being really friendly but it kind of looks like the end of the world since the streets there are so few cars around and nearly everything is shut.

after walking butter in the storm for 30 minutes at 3:30 AM he finally relieved himself, and me, I know you all were concerned

maybe we should get him together w/ benson and bucket

butter, bucket, and benson . . . YES!

B dog FAP!

someone on my facebook took nice nyc pics:

Scott that 2nd pic is like the gauntlet of death by falling branch
