At 4:30, the time I usually leave the clinic, I was chopping ice off my front steps with the claw end of a hammer. I think I made the right call about staying home. Right now, big flakes of snow are falling rapidly.

Time to go downstairs and curl up under a blanket with my sweetie, a big bottle of Chilean merlot, and CNN's coverage of the New Hampshire results.

Update: Sigh...

More people have died due to this week's cold snap than died in collapsed freeways in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake here. :/ I'm glad you're comfy.

Sigh indeed. It wasn't even very exciting.

I'm glad to know you're safe and warm at home tonight. I have similar ice encrusting out here, though I've saved myself windshield scraping by putting my reflective sunshade on the *outside* of my windshield and pulling it tight against the glass by the tabs anchored inside the front doors.

As far as the New Hampshire primary goes... could be worse. Could be a lot worse.

I don't know about CNN ('cause I won't watch that shit), but NPR is making NH sound like a comeback for Dean. Among other things, they pointed out that among the nearly one-third of voters who waited till the last three days to make up their minds, exit polls showed a high percentage for Dean. Considering how the news media turned on him after Iowa, I find that fairly encouraging.

Your fall down the stairs sounded scary, hope you're ok now.

CNN's coverage of the New Hampshire results.

Yes, what about it?

Coverage in Britain is non-existent, so I was relying on your livejournal to hear what's going on, and -

nothing. C'mon. Campaign.

;-)

(Had half an inch of snow yesterday in coastal North Wales. And about as much ice. Drivers, for a change, coping with it. I'm surprised. Birmingham, apparently, is completely paralised. This is one of the times when I wish I had TV, so I could see how much snow they really have. My guess is under a foot. I used to live on top of the black forest [for one winter, then moved valleywards for obvious reasons and a narrow escape from an encounter with an iced-over mountain road]. Two feet of snow would have been a disappointing winter)
