Boo to trudging through snowstorms.

Yay to being sent home early because all collections are cancelled.

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do bad things. - Jingo, Terry Pratchett

Well, it's a total whiteout here. No work today because the mail can't get here.

Hope the rest of you are doing fine.

It's cold, but not blizzarding. Not yet, anyway.

Getting home today was "fun". It's still snowing heavily hours later, and I brought my laptop from work, on the chance I'll need to work from home. (I doubt it'll come to that, but... I'm not sure.)

Meat, the parents.

I did at least have the self-respect not to put a laughing emoji after that.

Two new episodes of the Ducktales reboot aired over in Scandinavia. I'm just gonna say one thing:

Tara Strong and Andrea Libman voicing kelpies.

That's a lot of effort for an April's Fools joke.

I mean... it is an April's Fools joke, right??
