The roads were cleared from the massive snow we got, but the sides were piled with drifts and plowed snow.   And that&#8217;s where I found myself when the traffic came barreling my way.   At one point I was thigh-deep in the snow.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I went to Staples for a keyboard tray, mouse, and laptop case.   And I ended up being somewhat encumbered on the trip back.  I was pretty well worn out by the time I got home and took a mid-afternoon bath to relax and warm up.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Went out to dinner at CiCi&#8217;s pizza and picked up a couple of cheap games for the Wii.   I also finished up watching Logan&#8217;s Run on DVD.  Not a great movie, but the themes are interesting.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>On Sunday, I went to the hospital to visit my FRM&#8217;s grandmother.  She was in for gall bladder surgery and though they had a bit of a scare after the surgery she&#8217;s doing much better.  I think she really appreciated seeing me, so, that was good.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I finally got around to sending in a donation to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aire-rescue.com\/\">Airedale Terrier Rescue and Adoption<\/a>.  Been meaning to do this since my parent&#8217;s dog had to be put to sleep, but I wasn&#8217;t sure what to include in the note.  Got that written up last night and in the mail today. <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Watched a little of the show &#8220;Hoaders&#8221; &#8211; in a word, whoa.   Made me want to clean my basement &#8211; just in case.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My room-mate and I are going to go pick up the recliner today.   Maybe.   A family friend of his passed away over the weekend and the calling hours are this evening.  He doesn&#8217;t really want to make the drive there tonight &#8211; I guess it will depend on if he can get any time off tomorrow for the actual service.  If he stays in the area, we&#8217;ll pick up the new recliner and maybe a door for me to make into a desk.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Well, got a meeting coming up &#8211; better get ready for that.<\/div>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/6913097901389264887-4124453649249047352?l=thunderofwade.blogspot.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I took myself for a walk on Saturday.
