- Uh-oh, sense of humor kicked in. Idea for next render – Giger aliens having a snowball fight. I'm bad
# - OK, *you* tell me where it's canonical that Giger aliens don't have snowball fights! #
- Expanded idea: @MikeHawthorne 's 3YO having a snowball fight with Giger aliens. Wonder if @DarkHorseComics would buy the idea …

# - Yay, Camille render passes almost done – 6 hours. Now comes the Photoshop part and the Magic Pen Of Wacom Intuos! #
- From @WUSA9 – #WMATA no above ground #MetroRail and no #MetroBus saturday – Probably means no #MetroAccess either #
- PCA's dog after 2 minutes going outside to do his business. He was *really* eager to get back in! http://twitpic.com/11lkht #snowpocalypse #

- Otherworld Fanart posted up on my blog in three posts via http://bit.ly/8Zv4IJ – Comments welcome (Menolly plz be gentle!) @YasmineGalenorn #
- Looks like 18" of snow so far, still falling. Looks so ethereal Need to remember to go clear hole in shed door so ferals can get out in AM #
- OK, enough staring at the snow as beautiful as it looks before it turns to grey sludge, sleep calls #
- Vid of the day: @WUSA9 camera car was trying to help a snowplow *truck* out of a snowbank in Montgomery County – @WUSA9 PLEASE YouTube
# - We've got 2' at the front door, *after* clearing 8" last night – and another ~12" due today – be careful @MikeHawthorne #

- Dammit, not even our PCA can make it through to get to the shed & clear a way for the ferals to get out. Hope the cans last night were enuf #
- Still snowing – Got to hand it to @WUSA9 teams for staying out in the middle of this #snowpocalypse #

- Remember plowed roads *create* barricades for wheelies/blind especially, snow berms on sidewalks mean we have to use roads #snowpocalypse #
- RT @taosecurity: #snowpocalypse The snow is out there. It can't be reasoned with. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead. #

- Oh hell, a church collapsed in DC #Snowpocalypse #
- Uh oh, power just flickered. Not a good sign! #
- OK, so power's back, but we have 3 feet of snow outside. Can't get to shed to release ferals, can't get to road (not plowed anyways) >> more #
- but we're warm, and should be OK until they get to our street mid-week. Wheelies in snowstorms are stranded longer than 2-leggeds
# - Slush piles 2-leggeds can step over might as well be walls for wheelies – no-one clears enough, so we have to wait

- Woohoo!!! I get to go smash ice off the ramp this am! Downside – not allowed to use flamethrower. Bah humbug! #
- No above ground #MetroRail #Metrobus or #MetroAccess service today http://bit.ly/ammY8d #WMATA #
- Not sure where @WUSA9 weatherdrones got figures, but we got 39" of snow – they're saying ~20". They can come see (if they can get here
) # - Flip side, @WUSA9 mobile units with live skype feeds yesterday – great idea. Hope they're not gonna dock pay of guy whose chain got broke
