nightdog_barks: Can of Maryland Club ground coffee (Coffee)

Odd how that happens ... heh. It's gray, 50 degrees, and raining lightly, which I don't think was predicted. I can hear chickadees outside.

Have to run to the store today and pick up a few things. Mr. Nightdog gets home very late tonight.

Coffee before all.

ETA: Okay, if wrens have come into the house twice this morning, maybe it's a sign that I need to close the back door. (And now Chango is watching the birdies in the backyard like it's a TV show. Hee.)

Good morning.

Just finishing up banana French toast and a little fresh grapefruit juice (mmmm) and ... I kinda want decaf this morning. I miss my coffee.

*heads downstairs to brew up some sissy-brew*

I'm thinking about taking this afternoon to eat lunch out, mail packages, and possibly go to the gym.

HELLO HELLO!

*passes coffee*

I'm on my second cup of tea, and about to start really really grading. I only have two hours now before I have to go get Z...

I need motivation and I have basically none.

Did at least get showered and wash my hair this morning, so it's still drying. If I use the blow-dryer on it, in this cold weather, the static will make me look like a laboratory experiment.

I slept pretty well last night but still feel like crawling back into bed.

It's, like, fifteen degrees outside and supposedly 84% humidity, and honestly, I want to know how that's even possible. I would think the water would condense and freeze out of the atmosphere, but I guess it doesn't. Indoors, of course, is a different thing. Static, static everywhere.

And my toes are getting red and swollen and itchy/painful again, these last couple days. This "chilblain" stuff is so not fun. I do think it'll go away though. It did before.

Are they house wrens? ;)

I can see where Chango is fascinated by the birds. So many, so much activity! My lad likes them too, but he hasn't quite caught on to the fact that he doesn't have a hope of catching them because they can just fly away.

I just saw your ETA about the wrens coming into the house, and I just think that's wonderful!

Well, it is unless the poor darlings can't find their way out again. Or unless they poop on something that isn't easy to clean.

Hi there! Chango sounds like a very fun doggie to have around. Alas, I am a cat person. But once in awhile I get around a dog I can get along with. =D

80 degrees and 55% humidity, here. Lovely, lovely day out there! And the high pressure of 30.20 is making my head feel great...so getting more done today than I have in a week! 2 loads of laundry, rearranged a few things in my room, made myself a meal and did some socializing with ya'll.

*sighs* Another cold front is moving down in a couple days so I'm making the most of this before it hits and my symptoms crash me with the drop in Barometric pressure. At least I can kinda predict when I can function. hee

Well...back to work for me. Wanna finish what I started.

good afternoon from unusually snowy seattle!
there's got to be at least two inches out there and it's still coming down. meaning of course that the entire city has shut down. fortunately the boy can work from home. the little one hasn't been to school all week. (at the moment he is asleep on the sofa and our girlcat is curled up prtectively next to him.)
and yay for wrens! there were gulls that did that in the bus station in Toronto. Chris and I named one of the more persistent and daring ones Charles Squab. <3
i have also seen pet dvds which show birds or squirrels or whatever and you can put them on for your cat or dog. i don't know, i would call that a window, but some people spend absurd amounts of money on their pets.
hope you're having a wonderful day! i'm staying inside where it's warm and eating raisin bread with peach jam.

Alas, there were no flocks of birdies at work today. It's very overcast, drizzly and foggy here. All this is supposed to eventually blow out and it'll be cold and windy.

I realized today that I have five action-packed workdays and then this year will be over. I'm not entirely sure how it's all going to fit in there, but I'll sure be glad when it's finished.

We have fog here. HEAVY fog. Fog so thick that I'm afraid that giant alien spiders are going to come out of it.

A Very Nice Young Man that I know through the intarwebs sent me some X-mess music to cheer me up, and it worked! My own fog from earlier this week has lifted some. Plus I finished all my Xmas shopping and I don't have to go back to a shopping area for a long time. Happy happy joy joy!
