up early yet again for a concall. setup in the basement. connecting through the cable worked out. pretty good call.

looked like about 5 in of snow on the ground after last night. wet, fluffy stuff. it didn't look like we'd be able to get out in time to get to the VRE. E was able to work from home.

breakfast

bagel w/ butter
banana
iced tea
coffee

i had a couple of rush jobs to do. we decided we'd let the sun work on the snow and try to dig out in the early afternoon.

lunch

potato and leek soup
ham, bologna, and cheese sandwich
iced tea

p&l soup is traditional english soup. i got it from the uk and ireland section at the grocery store. it just looked like it might be new and different. ok but not something i'll put on my usual soup list.

we attacked the snow after lunch. it hadn't been sunny but it was warm enough to really do a lot of melting. we managed to clear a good path in 45 min to an hr. we are now hearing that a big storm is coming fri/sat. so what's new?

snack

crackers
cherry coke

dinner

burritos (2)
iced tea

we watched another episode of a program called evolution. interesting show but a lot of the biologists and paleontologists talk about evolution as if it were an entity rather than a process. evolution conducts experiments and thoughts like that.

i watched two episodes of the simpsons after that. season 10 episodes. i really liked the canals of springfield.
