The weather outside...

Expectations are for 3-5 inches of snow by Saturday night, with more possible on Sunday. I have the shovel on the deck. Car is gassed up and groceries are bought, so the only reason I need to leave the house on Saturday is for an afternoon appointment. By that time, the snow should pretty much have stopped, but even if it hasn't...jiminy Christmas, you'd think we were bracing for the Storm of the Century here. 3-5 inches borders on trivial. 6+ is when things start getting interesting.

I'm not looking forward to the salt and the slush. Everything is so clean now. Clean and brown, but still.

I'm fighting off something. My right ear has been ringing for the last few days. Now it hurts, and the right side of my throat is a little sore. Nose feels funny. Really didn't need this now.

Spaghetti for the weekend, I think. The weather's right for it.

Well, that was fun

Nothing like a Mac's Grey Screen of Death to get one to activate the iDisk account and back up all the wip files. Then back up the wip files to the external hard drive for good measure.

I used to back up more regularly, but had fallen off these past months. I didn't back up the whole hard drive, but the important stuff is now in a couple of different places.

I hope the Grey Screen of Death was a hiccup and not a sign that something is soon to go Badly Wrong with my 3 yo MacBook.
