Another nor'easter for tomorrow, the day after spring sprung.

8"-12" of heavy, wet crap predicted this time with 40-50 mph winds.

This will be the fourth storm in as many weeks. Damn!


Funny this morning at the VA. Every year they do a simple psychiatric
evaluation on you by asking a bunch of questions about how you are
feeling about stuff in general.

At one point she asked me if in the past two or three weeks I had any
feeling of depression and hopelessness.

"Very much so", I said (which caused her to look up from the pad she
was writing my answers done).

"Four nor'ester's in a month should get anyone depressed with a feeling
of hopelessness."

I saw that. There is supposed to be 5" of snow in DC too. It may not
make it down to Southern Md but they will still have my favorite,
sleet and freezing rain ;-(
The rule in DC is you can expect snow right up until Easter, then you
are done. There may have been some exceptions but I don't remember
any. This was an adage from long before I was born. My grandparents
said it.
