Pajamas fresh out of the dryer.

Home-made chocolate cake and a week off at home with my 5 year old.

For once, sparcely inhabited towns. Since mine was the only school in my district to try the Poetry Out Loud competition, I get to skip regionals and go straight to state!

Snow!

There's incredible lots of it here, on the roadsides you can find piles taller than me and all the tree branches are white all over. It's so beautiful!

And besides, they say you can go walk on the sea now, the ice is solid enough. Gotta try that as soon as I finish my first BD check in two weeks!

Triage.

I love me my triage.

As I was saying to Nienna last night - it was either her or Boro... then again, maybe it was my brother or cousin? - if you aren't bleeding, none of your bones are broken, you're not running a dangerous fever, you can breathe, you're not in labor, and none of your organs are failing, then you can suck it up and wait a few hours.

Being done with my paper telephone artwork! At last!

It's only 2:56 in the morning.

Theoretically speaking, yes. For me, no. I am moving to the Lower 48 (or the UK!) as soon as I can. But really it's the darkness that hurts you the most, it gets inside your soul and eats you. Not fun.

Which is, of course, why this is in the Shire thread...

But yeah. It's only five thirty and already it's been pitch black for an hour. It gets so depressing, and winter's not even half over yet.
