Icy roads
Unlike Seattle proper, around here we have perhaps fewer hills. One of the exits from our neighborhood is Too Steep, and has been blocked off until the roads are un-iced.
Thursday night gave me a notification about my car's battery level, so Friday we needed to drive and charge it. Belovedest dropped me off at the dentist and drove circles while they cleaned off my popped crown and cemented it back down.
After that was done, they picked me up and we went off to Ev's place to drop off some things and pick up some others, in case the weather was too nasty for her to return on Sunday as planned.
(There was a brief IKEA detour, which annoyed my knees but not my lungs. Progress on the breathing front!)
We watched the CBC countdown ("Is that country?" "It's Canadian country." "Oh."), the Shit Fireplace 2021 with miscellaneous objects set on fire inside a toilet bowl, and the Seattle countdown with the only vaguely explicable Augmented Reality show that the announcers breathlessly informed us would be done Actually Live!!!! rather than fully pre-recorded. Which according to them was some sort of first. The featured performer was Sir Mix-a-Lot.
The bubbly was rather dry, which is not the way I like it, but I'm sure we will figure out things to do with it.
Today we have been inside. The LED strip over the fireplace turned blue midway through the afternoon, which means that it dropped below freezing acccording to IFTTT. I'm not sure where I left my slippers.
