Weathermen can't agree, 3 different reports for the storm coming tonight
1) All snow, except towards the end with a bit of a wintery mix
2) Wintery Mix (Rain, Freezing Rain, Snow)
3) all Rain

I'll let you know tomorrow if any of them got it right. Last Friday they seemed to agree we were getting a wintery mix..... I got all snow..... guess I'll wait and see how this storm turns out
 
Started doing bare trees from observation, in charcoal rather than the very soft pencil that Ruskin advises. At the moment they're essays, but some way of making them into art will occur to me at some point
 
On a call for a client that I'm not supposed to be on for more than 10 minutes; it's been 35 minutes now. Because no one who is supposed to take it is willing to, and they've ignored her for days. In the meantime, I've got multiple new tickets piling up, people calling me back and going to voicemail, and missing new issues from users.

I'd talk to my boss, but they fired him yesterday for no clear reason. And a coworker. Despite us being short staffed (I am not supposed to be doing phones at all, but I am the only person on them for the past two weeks), and still giving them the best of the metrics they're obsessed with.
 
Welp, the doctor says the problems I've been having are withdrawal symptoms, and that I should have cut down my drinking more gradually. He also prescribed thiamine, and told me that my only real option is complete abstinence.
 
Snow, Sleet, Freezing rain, multiple accidents on the highway between my house and office.....this is going to continue until late this afternioon...... hmmm....think I'll work from home today
 
Complete abstinence is very tough, but extremely effective. What are you going to do?
Go back to the chemist tomorrow when they get my thiamin in, then I think I had better do as I was told. It won't be all bad, I'll be fitter and slimmer
