Weather: 60 degrees, rain, gale-force winds.** In short, a Nor'Easter...except that (a) it's come up from the southwest, like a very late hurricane, and (b) it's 30 degrees too warm.

Fuck global warming.

* 'Office Closure': a now largely obsolete category on our timecards.
** As in, We've just lost power for a fraction of a second twice in a row here.***
*** 'Here' being the actual office, where I am attending a holiday party. Which seems somewhat ironic in the circs.


ETA: Weather: Numerous downed trees in Belmont made my trip home (via the slash pile where the Lions Club had been selling Christmas trees), umm, interesting; but nothing had fallen on my house when I got home, so.
Party: I should have remembered to just bring Tupperware.

Ych a fi, this weather.

For the umpteenth straight day, today is cool and clear: classic Fall weather.
I'd be overjoyed except of course that it means we're officially in a drought now.

(Also, my skin REALLY hates it.)
(Also, I woke up at like ass AM and lay awake for half an hour or more panicking about drought, catastrophic climate change, and Torger Vedeler's Layers.)

Can we have murder hornets instead?

Woke up at about 3:45 AM, and couldn't get back to sleep for worrying about the election, the USPS, and the state of the atmosphere. Taedet animam meam vitae meae. Taedet animam meam huius aetatis.

Now the Father has sent us enough snow and awful hail..."

Except that we still aren't nearly terrified enough about the prospect of a new age of flooding, so that the sea covers the Earth up to the mountains.

The last days of February made it seem as though we'd fast-forwarded to April, with temperatures in the 60s. With the start of March, the weather is shifting abruptly back to February: yesterday was mild, but today it's windy and 40s (a fact that I failed to anticipate, with unfortunate consequences for my wardrobe); the weekend is going to be well below freezing.

%$^&* climate change.

(At least the trees didn't bud out during this false spring. The daffodils will survive; or failing that, we'll survive without them. Another year without apples, on the other hand, would be upsetting.)

In other news, turned down a job at the Census. I hate my current job, but a temporary part-time position is not gonna cut it as a replacement.
