My dad's back in the hopsital. Nothing TOO serious, just some digestive problems. Still nerve-wracking.

Thanks. We talked last night and he's doing better. He's got a kink in his small intestine, so nothing too serious.

Glad it's not too serious for him, and that he's doing better. Doesn't sound much fun.

Glad it's not too serious. Get well soon, Striker's dad.

Thanks, all. :) Been talking to my dad and he's doing better, should be home sometime this week.

Also, I got about eight fucking inches of snow. Snow can go fuck off, all right?

Glad to hear, he's doing well.

They're talking about snow here. Which likely means we will see 1 or 2 flakes, the schools will shut and the world will end. The next day it will be gone.

Don't forget the trains. Wrong type of snow shuts them down almost every time.

We don't even need snow to stop trains, leaves on the line will do that.

Well I was right, we have about 1 inch in some places and flights have been cancelled. Some schools are shut some lanes on our motorways are unusable. We have enough to put a fine coat on roofs but nothing much other than that.

That would be enough for me to... wake up a little early and clean my car off before driving.

As far as snow this season, I did get maybe 1/4" dusting but not cold enough to stick to the road. As in everywhere else but the roads.

Past ten years have been pretty bad for snow. Honestly don't know if we may ever get it.

I just finished setting up my new television and Blu-Ray player, replacing my 23-24 year old TV and my DVD player that's about... a little over 21 years old. I got it in September of 2001, after flying back from California for my brother's wedding and my mother and I being on the very first plane out of Manchester Airport after 9/11.
