It's cold and that makes me sleepy and cranky

[mistressofmuses]

Work was slow as hell, yet I couldn't get my shit together enough to even try to surreptitiously work on anything else.

The roads were pretty shitty heading into work, but not as bad as they could have been. They were worse this evening, but still not too bad... until someone ran a red light and came within about two feet of the front of our truck. One of those "if we'd pulled across the intersection just slightly faster, we would have been creamed" things. Extra anxiety-producing, having been in a car-totalling accident from someone running a red light into us several years ago.

Also, it's the nasty bitter miserable cold, and that makes everything hurt.

Predictably... having started playing something, now I just want to play that in my downtime and not do other things. :(

I may be hitting minimums on writing for a few days while I get the new-game-excitement out of my system, ha.

Planning to get together with Taylor on my next "weekend", which I'm looking forward to.

And I dug this video up of a fire-bellied toad "singing". The embed wouldn't work in a comment, but here it is!

I don't have a good video of Broccoli Cheddar Bomb singing, but this is what it sounds like. :)

Watch on YouTube

Hope you weather the storms alright and that's the worst that happens.

[mistressofmuses]

So far so good!

[windowsmillennialed]

Glad to hear you're alright after such a near miss, damn. I genuinely hope the roads have improved today and that's the worst of it.

[mistressofmuses]

Yeah, it was not fun. The roads were a bit worse today, but no close calls, so still an improvement!

[windowsmillennialed]

Bloody hell, ghah. Glad there's the no close calls part though that ought to be the minimum. >:/

Hope you're staying safe, healthy, and warm despite the weather and crazy, sheesh.

[mistressofmuses]

Right? That should be an easy bar to clear, and yet! I feel like there's some asshat on the road who tries to wipe us out every other day.

But yes, fortunately able to stay reasonably safe so far!

*shudders* So stressful, even if you hadn't already had trauma from an accident.

[mistressofmuses]

Definitely super stressful, ugh.
