Shouldn't that be a Spring Storm Warning?

Whichever. S'posed to start with The Weather late tonight/early tomorrow and do its thing throughout the day, with an estimated pre-game call of 8-15 inches of what will doubtless be Very, Very Wet Snow on the ground at the end of it all.

May I just say? I'm tired of snow, now. Can we move on? Mud was progressing so nicely...

So, anyway, The Leewit is charging. Paladin is charging. The phone needs juice, too, but it'll have to wait 'til I get home. I have a grocery list to fulfill on the way out from day-labor -- and a good job, indeed, that those unexpected, but perfectly delightful, German royalties dropped into the mailbox yesterday. We can buy cat food, bird food, and people food! It doesn't get any better than that.

I have completed Night Two of the CPAP machine. It was somewhat easier than Night One, and made more comfortable by the fact that Mozart braved the Fierce Breathy Monster and slept against my side for a bit. Unfortunately, I have the mask-straps too tight, and have managed to bruise the bridge of my nose -- right where my glasses rest. I'd feel a lot better about this if I'd managed to land a fist on the other fellow...

I'm thinking that work on George will resume Saturday. I hadn't planned on taking quite so much time off, but Life, it happens.

So! How's by you?

Ah, I missed that you had some German royalties drop in. I hope they were pleased by your reception of them *g*.[1]

Snow? It's hot here, around +10C (40F)...

[1] I can't remember in which book a kid whose father is a writer waits all day because "some royalties are expected" and is disappointed when it's only a cheque.

I had meant to say yesterday, but LJ was down, and then we have a class we're taking on Wednesday evenings for the next while, so the arrival went under-reported. This would be for the Atlantis Verlag edition of Plan B aka Escape from Lytaxin.

I hope they were pleased by your reception of them

If I may say, we here at the Cat Farm invariably receive royalties with all due reverence.

I'm pretty sure the kid is in one of the Heinlein juveniles, probably Have Spacesuit Will Travel

That sounds right, Kip's father. Too long since I reread that...

Definitely that one - I remember that, too.
