Since we never get this much snow (the PNW is natoriously mild, weather wise, wet, but mild), I desided to take pics when I did my walks. I always walk in the snow, but usualy I do it at night, so I can be alone, but in order to take pics, I did most my walking in the day this year. Just for you guys ( Read more... )

I am totaly conflicted about the new storm approching. On the one hand, YAY! STORMS! And also, YAY! SNOW! I mean, sure we already have eight inches in our front yard, and that's more then we've gotten in like a decade, but this new storm could bring our house between 6-18 more inches. Which is hitting the point of both \o/ and /o\ at the same ( Read more... )

The other airport is snowed in.

Grandma is staying until Monday.

I've never felt this angry towords snow in my life. ::headesk::

Okay, so end of March, we had this freek snowstorm that lasted a week. We all thought, okay, sign of doom, but it's over, and we're all fine now.

Last weekend, we had a short, two day heatwave that ended with last Saturday hitting record highs for this time of the year. Here in Oly we hit an incredible 82°'s.

I really, really do not handle heat well, which is part of why I live in a basement "apartment", but though most of the summer, I only close my window when I'm out of the ( Read more... )

Well, I wasn't going to partisipate in the LJ strike today/yesterday, because as the_star_fish put it so perfectly: "There's a strike on LJ today. I'm choosing not to participate, because I figure if SUP actually don't want us here, posting stuff about Teh Ghey and getting all CAPSLOCK about teevee, why do them the favor of not doing it? So here I am ...."But ( Read more... )

Okay, ( so I got Mortis into Les Schwab today )

Okay...I don't know what I just got saved from, but I'm sure I'm very greatful. Whatever it was, it must have been bad, for all the hell they had to put me though to keep me off the roads.

Okay, lets take this little story from the top, shall we? ( It all started last night... )

Okay, so most people know about the Tornado that hit yesterday, and I know most of you know it wasn't near me, but at least one of my more distant friends was worried, so I thought I'd clear it up here. Yes, we had a tornado here yesterday. Three funnel clouds formed, but we only have evidence of one touching down. No, it was not anywhere near ( Read more... )
