snow!

terry called me at work today to tell me there was snow on our street. several of my coworkers pointed out that i would have already known that if i'd bothered to look out the window during the day. sadly, i was facing the wrong way (back to the windows) during a seven-hour experience i like to call the LONGEST MEETING EVER.

i've been helping out a little bit on a very long trial which is, thankfully, in its final week or two. however, i've put in a few long days lately reading stats and economic analyses. actually kind of interesting stuff for the long dormant policy wonk in me. but still makes for long days.

two related bits of knitting non-news: (1) one of the reporters covering the trial was knitting in court the other day. doesn't the judge mind? doesn't her editor? i guess things are different up here. i'm really just jealous, b/c i'm pretty sure i'd get fired if i tried knitting in court. (2) tk noticed in the paper that there's a "chicks with sticks" group meeting at barnes & noble at 6:00 on monday nights. for the non-alaskans, barnes & noble is directly across the street from my office, which really means i have no excuse at all. once this trial ends, i'm going to go scope it out.

wait -- this was supposed to be about snow. sadly, it was a bit of a non-event. just a very light dusting. still, very pretty. now we need to get truman a christmas stocking to hang by the fire!
