Snow geology

A neat thing you might not be aware of about snow, if you live somewhere where it doesn’t snow very often: under the right circumstances, it forms clear striations like rock does, if you happen to get a decent break in between storms and different kinds of snow fall in the different storms. Note here just how clearly you can see the break between Major Winter Storm 1 and Major Winter Storm 2.

No real point, I just thought it was neat.

In which I don’ wanna

I don’t like to get behind on my grading. But this is what happens when a) you refuse to do grading at home during the week (which I do), b) you have two out of the last three Fridays where school is cancelled, and c) on the one Friday where school isn’t cancelled, you didn’t have school on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday and it completely escapes your notice to bring your stuff home.

Thankfully, I came home yesterday assuming we’d be out today. Which we are. So I’m going to go read a book and play video games and hope that my house gnomes do my grading for me. Because it’s still Friday, dammit, and I don’t grade on Fridays. 🙂

In which we should be dead by now

My wife found this weird-ass thing under a tree in our front yard last summer, and I just noticed it again. I’m vaguely disappointed that no eldritch horrors ever spewed forth from it to destroy my house.
