Woke up, put on clothes, went to work. I was so busy today that it took me until 10:27 p.m. to write, "Woke up, put on clothes, went to work."

Speaking of absences, Mook the Meteorologist makes his triumphant return today. He said that the reason he was away so long was to test how much I'd miss him. Here's his report: Looks like a good sticking snow coming late this weekend into the first part of the week. Even though it's early, he predicts a few inches Sunday night into Monday. And anyone who has read this in the past knows that Mook is pretty good.
