I returned safely to Ithaca -- Mom and I drove up and arrived around 1pm, well before the storm hit. She left at about 1:45pm (the delay was so I could get to the grocery store, which was ridiculously busy with people stocking up in case of in case) and did not arrive back in Madison until well after 7pm -- she was driving through a bunch of snow, then sleet, and then miserable rain.

Meanwhile in Ithaca the snow began at almost exactly 4pm and has not actually stopped. though it has slowed down. I think we are at five inches and counting. I closed the smoke shop tonight, and we did not have a single customer between 7:15pm and 9 o'clock... which was fine by me, since it gave me time to get some useful chore-type things done and also shovel the front walk several times.

Then I slogged home -- and let me tell you, walking a mile through 4 or 5 inch deep snow is not fun -- and shoveled the entirety of my house's sidewalk. It is a corner house. It has a lot of sidewalk.

Ow.

And now, having rested and eaten dinner, I am going to get back to working on my Ladystuck fic, which is due tomorrow night and which I am absurdly behind on. Time management failure compounds, you see -- this is the knock-on effect of my troubles with my Yuletide fic. *sigh*

Oh well, at least I am not mired in existential ennui like I was last week. Onward!
