Busy Biggie

I think Biggie is a bigger fan of snow than I am!! I'd love to close off the cat door for warmth but he's just having too much fun.

So I found a Fireplace Channel on my Roku.



Biggie goes out to explore.



Biggie comes in to watch.



I'm trying a new thing today. It's called Stretch Clock. You set a timer for when you want to be reminded and then it gives you 1 minute stretches. There are almost too many options/stretches to pick from. Right now I have it set for an hour and 5 stretches. So every hour, I hear a tone and click on the stretch button and follow the videos. It's actually pretty cool. My plan is to give it a solid - do it whether I want to or not - week. Every hour between 9am and 7pm. Hopefully by then it will be a habit!

Twitter says they are closing the streets now downtown - the ones with the steep hills. In photos I see tire tracks. WTF? I hate those streets on dry days. Who the hell would give them a go up or down today??

I'm gonna say "new people"; if you've lived here for a while, you know that's a serious breach of local etiquette.

Two jackknived articulated buses at Third and Battery, and they've got chains! Go home, for heaven's sake!

I know that routine as pomodoro breaks. I love that technique but rarely remember to set the alarm. I should just find myself an ap.

"Pomodoro"? Tomato breaks?

[siglinde99.livejournal.com]

Yes. As in the timers shaped like tomatoes.

I like the idea of a stretch reminder. Especially since I spend waaaaaaaay too much time sitting at my computer. I'll have to check it out.

I have a friend who lives in Atlanta at the top of a VERY steep hill. It's rare that they get snowy weather there, but the last time they did, it shut down the city. The next day he decided he wanted to go get lunch and went out driving (even down the super treacherous hill) and then was disappointed nothing was open and had to struggle back up the hill and barely made it. So dummies like him are the ones doing that.

hahaha — nice to know who the idiots are.

On my fairly frequent visits to San Francisco, I sometimes reflect on how fortunate it is that it basically never snows there.

I like to think that the universe has arranged a nice deep fall of Seattle snow specifically for Biggie's enjoyment.

I would consider a cat without windows to be cruel and unusual punishment. Not the same for dogs--they don't spend their time staring out windows unless the mailman comes by.

Ooh, I love the stretch idea. I'm going to try it.

I wish I had Biggie's work ethic.
