Took Sergent up to fearsclave's new digs last weekend. I am seriously jealous of the town: it's kind of like a winterised Eureka.The drive up was a little longer than I bargained for, and I kind of tweaked my back sitting for that long. The dog slept the whole way, and even put up gracefully with the harness I put on him to keep him buckled in the back seat ( Read more... )

Two hours of snowshoeing yesterday and I am wrecked. Had a great time with luvenditti and fearsclave. The Wuh-Mun wasn't home from her trip yet, and I was sad to have missed her, but her sistern Karen was visiting with her two Siamese cats (they're a mix of chocolate flame point and, erm, I forget the other), so I bonded with all three.

Dude, there is a LOT of snow out there. Everything has slowed to a crawl. I was fifteen minutes late to work in spite of the bus being fifteen minutes late and the metro being significantly delayed. Go me ( Read more... )

Attended the service for Aunt Molly yesterday, meeting her whole family for the first and presumably last time. I told my mother that if I die before she does, she's responsible for not letting the priest officiating spout inanities at great length. Aunt Molly was dignified, charming, elegant and witty. She would have been hard-pressed to hide her ( Read more... )

Well, in the Saguenay region and Estrie, anyway. Even Bromont. Reports are of something like ten centimeters. I can't find a link.

Makes me want to dig out my snowshoes and run away to Lac-St-Jean.
