The edge of the blizzard...

Living out in the boonies doesn't get you much in the way of valuable weather information. Back before everyone went digital, we used to get Albuquerque stations on our TV, and I personally found the weather coverage from New Mexico more useful than similar reports (more precisely, lack of reports) from Denver-based Colorado stations.

In any event, the Denver weather dweebs have been carrying on about a blizzard they were expecting up around their neck of the woods, and fortunately, we only caught the edge of the weather system. The wind has been blowing fairly strongly, to the point where a snowflake that passes by my eyeball is more than likely to land in New Mexico—about 15 miles away—than anywhere around here.

Between a couple of trips to the grocery store for provisions for tomorrow's holiday, I've managed to finish and send off all of the items due today and Friday for one client, and put a good dent in a contract due by COB Friday. Call it a 2,500-source-word day.
