My cats ate a mouse last night. I'm sure they did it for you.

What a crazy night at work.

Flight 1 arrived around 9:40pm, about 4 degrees and cloudy.

By flight 2 at 10:30 it was snowy and temp hovering freezing.

By flight 3 at midnight a full on mini blizzard.

Also had a red alert for an hour or so.

Flight 3 arrives and an airline with West in their name had 2 planes waiting for ground crews to arrive, blocking our flight, almost an hour after our flight landed, it finally made it to the gate after the airline with West in their name decided having maintenance workers bring in the plane was a better option then having it sit blocking other planes.

My Saturday flight was cancelled due to snow until Monday so I'm out $90 an extra 2 days of car rental. Oh, It's an airline with Air in it. :-)

Noel or Liam?

I always preferred Noel as he seemed funny whereas Liam was too...aggressive?

But there's an interview with Liam in the guardian today. Very sweary but quite funny.

I wore shoes today. Not boots, shoes. Do you understand the significance?

Absolutely. I've done it about 5 times since I expected not to see them again until April.

The entrance to our hospital sticks out. There are sliding doors on the front and both sides. In the winter they close off the front doors so that cold air doesn't blow in and then through the inner doors.

Last week they opened up the front doors. Or, rather, I noticed they were open last week and it wasn't a warm day. I've never seen them open this early.

That seems premature. I’ll blame any further snowfall on you!

it only lasted about 3 hours...lol

It was a weird day/night. Most of the day was nice, then around 9:30p poured rain, then next thing you know its snowing like mad hard, then by the time I was off, it had stopped completely not to return..
