Since this is one of the busiest times of the year, I know I’ve only had time skim blog posts this week. So I’ve decided to make today’s post easily skimmable. First off, I wanted to share a few pictures from the wee blizzard we had over the weekend. Even though we get snow every year, I don’t think I’ll ever get used to seeing so much at once.

Here’s what our backyard looked like. The snow was the light, powdery kind, but it still managed to weigh down the branches so they were sprawled out on the ground:

And here’s a picture of my car. I put the wipers up the night before – don’t they look like antennae on some kind of weird snow bug?

And finally, here’s a picture of our street after they’d only come by and plowed once (I guess they figured no one had anywhere to go). Luckily, there was some actual plowing later on in the day (at which point there were literally three plows driving by in a row).

That night, after the snow stopped, there was an amazing red sunset and I managed to snap a picture. Sadly, though, my camera seems to have eaten that photo because I can’t find it anywhere. I’ll try to put it up later if I manage to track it down.

Adding to the snow fun, here’s an adorable video I saw yesterday of a dog that does NOT like snow:

And finally, you might have already seen this elsewhere, but if you haven’t I highly recommend checking out this great article on the physics of space battles. It’s interesting stuff, especially for anyone who reads, writes, or watches science fiction.

See you tomorrow when I’ll post a WIP update, most likely my last post for the week. Happy Tuesday!
