Not too bad at the moment, but fell asleep (for the 2nd time) later than usual, so hope I don’t crash after lunch  

Sunny, temps actually supposed to be in  the 50s this afternoon 

But predicting an ice storm wednesday night & snow on thursday

It's supposed to snow again Sat. too.

Hear the East Coast/New England could get hammered. Don’t know how much of an impact it will have on your area, but hope you & your family stay safe.

Currently 5F here. Had light snow all day yesterday. Actual accumulation is provably less than an inch. But in some ways it seemed worse because people thought they could still do the usual stupid stuff behind the wheel and get away with it. Think I’ll focus on at home projects today (plenty of them anyway  ) and save the outside errands fur tomorrow when it’s a little warmer.

Lifelong dog person since I was 3 years old. Growing up it wasn’t unusual for us to have 3 or 4 at a time. But haven’t had one since having to say goodbye to my 14 year old yellow lab last year.

@Kreideprinz Sorry to hear about your dad, hope things work out ok. Problem neighbors are the worst. Back when I lived in the country, we had one who’s dogs would chase my car down our lane when I came home. Which of course prompted our dogs to come to the rescue. On the few occasions it resulted in more than just barking, theirs’ always got the worst of it since ours were bigger. So it was our fault even though it was our property & they made no attempt to keep them home. Not having to deal with them was definitely a plus when we moved.

Was spitting snow when I drove home tonight, but not amounting to anything. Supposed to stay in the 20s overnight, so an improvement. No plans for the weekend.

Then again the OST has been pretty awesome in general

And these 2 from a couple years ago (just recently bought season 1 on blu-ray, impatiently waiting on an update for season 2)

Cold. Once temps get in the single digits the boiler struggles to keep the house warm. Don’t notice it under the blankets, but once I’m up .  Been running space heaters some, but don’t like to too much. Wish I’d had the chimney cleaned so I could start a fire <reminder to not forget it this year>. Admittedly it’s not bad compared to some winters in my childhood (make a crack about the ice age & I’ll hit you with my club) and we’ve been able to avoid ice & snow for the most part unlike some unfortunate souls. Guess I got spoiled from some of the milder ones. At least the office is warmer (motivation to go to work  ) ‘bout that time.

Can recite the alphabet backwards as quickly as I can forwards.

Pretty good at multiplication in my head

Yuri on Ice seems to be garnering a lot of attention. Haven't seen it, but it's getting high praise.

In this case Yuri is the name of a couple dudes & it has elements of yaoi  

The english title is Actually, I am … & apparently the manga is called My Monster Secret.

I only made it through a couple episodes    of it though.

Temps in the low 20’s, gray skies & light snow falling

I’m pretty sure Fate Zero is the first in the continuity and that Grand Order & the Netflix exclusive titles aren’t directly connected to the main story, but I could be wrong. @MediaConsumesMe seems to be the resident expert on the Fate series, so hopefully he or someone else can steer you in the right direction (and won’t be mad about the namedrop  )

Welcome, glad you found your way here. Hope you find things to interest you & enjoy it 

The only anime i’ve seen I truly consider yuri is Strawberry Panic. Though Flip Flappers seems to imply it. Same with Otherside Picnic, though that one was disappointing (I hear the light novel(?) is better, but haven’t read it).
