Warmer — strike that — not as cold today. Raining, actually. A downtown jaunt to the bank and the post office, then intersect with Kim & Charlie on campus, where we see Mary & John walking Teddy (1/5 sec at full zoom; good luck) and chase around as usual. And I see that Charlie is included in the Christmas proceedings.
Perhaps the worst day yet of winter weather. Fierce wind, blowing snow. Of course, Charlie loves it. And he enthusiastically routed a small herd of mice from its warm nest at the edge of a tombstone, and then just watched them scamper.

Awakened today to snow outside the window. And, soon after, friend C.J. sends me some pix of his car this morning. (Incidentally, he runs all-seasons while I have summer performance tires that are useless on snow or ice and even come with a warning not to use them in temps below 40 degrees.)
Today it was up at 4:03 am only to discover that some holiday decorating had been taking place. Later, a visit to friend Gary’s computer build/repair shop to, well, talk shop, then a country drive before snow starts falling again. Of course, the day was interspersed with the incessant dog walks, good food and an evening Netflix viewing of the CBGB movie to revive punk memories (recalling my first date with Kim to a Hollywod club where we heard a couple of live punk bands).
A storm larger than Earth? Read the story here.
Kim creates a luxuriously warm elephant-themed comforter, the Cur Most Foul dashes off to one of his favorite but unacceptable smell spots, and we cruise through the campus cold.
