LOL But the question is, GoC, did you enjoy the change of weather? I realize that the snow can be quite the inconvenience, especially when one isn't used to quite that amount, but you have to admit that it's a change of pace!
One last day of sunshine for us, then back to rain. But at least it won't be damned-near freezing this time, so my flowers will be happy with the sprinkle.

Just sent the message along, Kosmo! Sadly, the promised snow didn't reach my ground...but the mountains and some of the hills around the Bay Area are all wearing their winter caps
But cripes, it's cold! -
So is that weather common for Rumania, Kosmo?
The news flash here: snow levels down to 1000 feet tonight and tomorrow night. So my hilltop won't see snow, but the hills to the west, that I look out to, might

Heh if the Brits have no idea how to handle winter, then Californians, well, we're downright weather wusses. But as predicted, the sun is out from the start, nary a cloud in the sky...Bella the kitty is in her usual sunshine patch, and indeed the lettuces are happy to have nutrition again. But damn is it cold...40'F...I think I'll stay indoors.

LOL Thank you, Lord Caldrail, for your perspective! I really do enjoy what's in front of me, and while I'm fairly ambitious in my life, I learned long ago that in the romance world, such ambition is never a good thing. Just roll with the proverbial tide, and make the best of whatever comes your way.
On the other hand, one of my horrorscopes (heh) said that in 3 1/2 months not only will I find love, but it'll be the luckiest time in love for me (and other Capricorns) in 12 years. Thing is, 12 years ago I wasn't lucky in love at all...I was avoiding love, seeing as I was about to move 1800 miles away. So what do they know?
Ah, l'amore...
-
Yes, I saw that! I was just hoping that they'd get something here, too, considering how they've taken off like wild fire. Eh, it's all good, I guess.
-
There's something about the Beeb's software that they look at your IP address, and black out certain content. I believe, although I'm not certain, that if I wanted to watch certain shows that aren't on slate for BBC America, that it'll show them to me. Annoying, really.
-
Nope, iPlayer blocks certain shows that they show on BBC America, such as Top Gear and Graham Norton (which is only about 2-4 weeks delayed
). I'm thankful for my friend/neighbor and his questionably-legal methods. -
Well, a major one, at least. The baby ones are cute
-
First, there's nothing wrong with Jezza...well, there is, but he's a wonderful car clown. I love watching that show! The bad news is that BBC America takes about 6 months to show things over here, ugh. so we eventually watch them. My neighbor upstairs has figured out a way to record them on a server in Britain, so I actually got to watch the last two episodes. Holy jeez...the Three Wise Men??? heheheheheh
-
Here's to you, Lord Caldrail...may your 2011 continue to have a blue sky with more sun than clouds
-
I have become one recently! Vampire Weekend took a bit to grow on me, but now I'm seriously loving them. Great gym music!
Hope you and yours have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2011, GoC.

I was just beginning to think that the winter depression had totally robbed you of your sense of humor, Lord Caldrail...but that last bit was truly good. BBC America made a huge to-do about the fact that they broadcasted the Doctor Who Christmas blah blah blah--quite the achievement that they actually broadcast something in the UK and in the US at the same time! I can safely say that such crap was not viewed at my abode. On the other hand, I think there were some viewings of reruns of Star Trek: Next Generation. Picard effing rules.
And now...the wait of gawd-knows-how-long until the next installment of new Top Gear. In the meantime, various repackagings of the previous series, trying to fool us Yanks into thinking that they're new episodes. And yet, I'd so much rather watch them than the new US version of the show. No personality, no passion...no goofiness. Or rather, fake goofiness.
-
OMG...hilarious! But I need to hear "Feck!" "Arse!" or "Girls!" to make it sound quite right.
Same to you, GoC, and your clan!
-
Soooo...if that's the case...the series of strong storms that we've been having here in Kah-lee-fohrn-knee-uh is due to the CIA weather balloons? Same for the Arctic hilarity going on in the UK?
-
Ah, that explains everything
-
Um, now I'm jealous. I did see them in college--they were top bill with a slew of other punk/swing/etc bands--and have been a constant in my '80s/First Wave' iTunes play list. Sadly, I never saw the Clash...that ship has sailed, I guess.
-
Wow...sounds like an amazing trip! It's been many years since I've last been to Yosemite, but I'm due to go again...hopefully next summer. Joshua Tree is one I haven't been to, but I've driven through the desert many a time...can't say you're missing that much, but that's just me. I would say Lake Tahoe is truly on the list, but so is Monterey, Napa/Sonoma, of course a few days in San Francisco proper...I hate Los Angeles with a passion, but visitors should see Disneyland, at least. San Diego...oh, Santa Barbara...*sigh* too much to do here! But if you do come out, let me know...I'll gladly play tour guide!
Today was gloriously sunny, cool, and a great walking day. We did a lot, especially since we didn't know until this evening that we might catch a break. You see, Saturday we supposedly will be 'dry' during the day, although I didn't exactly hear the word 'sunny' in that forecast. At least I can get one more day outside with my friend.
Tomorrow is another story...looks like quite a steady rain. Might be time to hit the nice mall, see a movie ("The King's Speech"), stuff like that. Every day in the next week brings rain...*sigh*...I guess we do need it...

So, is there no poultry member of the avian family running around clucking, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"? Odd, that....
-
Yikes! Well, as long as you're ok now, that's what's important. Good health to you, sir!
-
Hmmmm seems that there is a ghost or a guest...
-
Wow...any idea why you reacted so to the chicken curry? Perhaps someone tried so sneak in some naughty bits? Was Mrs. OfClayton affected poorly by the cuisine?
Note to self: inquire where your curry's come from...
-
I would agree, but I'm a bit of a type-A personality (or perhaps an A and a half...not quite so high strung), so a little of bit of stress fuels me. I actually prefer it...organizing, making people happy (and myself, naturally), but balanced with enough downtime to enjoy life. It's an art, true, but an easy one.

This has been quite the day for you! Congrats on the new license, and the renewed driving ability, albeit of a different type. More importantly, congrats on the return of the warm air!!!

Heheh naughty talk will get you everywhere, GoC
Spanish and Italian are my fluent ones, although I've done considerably more translations dealing with Spanish--both into and out of English. I won't do contracts, usually, as my legalese knowledge is poor in English, let alone the other languages (basic contracts are fine, but once the language starts to make my eyes cross, well, you get the gist of it). And while I have a 'friends' and 'frequent client' discount, I'm still not that cheap--gotta pay the bills, so to speak. It's for that reason that I don't usually get much business off of CraigsList, for example.
