snow settles in; stuff sinks in further, through remote control

My but the droopy branches of that evergreen outside this window look wild & dramatic, weighted down with inches of frosting.

Not only did my kick-ass boss call this morning to say we got the snow day, but she had already called everybody else! Usually we divvy up the list. I don't reckon I've written much about her here, but TGP is somethin'. She works her butt off for us behind the scenes, and she cares more about being a human being with us than she does about controlling everything---even when that instinct/desire makes it harder for her to do her job.

Anyway. Spent much of today so far talking to [livejournal.com profile] vjsmom. Sounds like she's maybe [crossing fingees] going to be in a good space for my visit. Hope so! Our talk today, along with a recent tidbit from [livejournal.com profile] homovegetarian, are reminding me how much easier it is to see how other people have been treated badly than it is to see it in my own life. Here's to a new year of refraining from working to excuse those throwing shit at us! Who's with me?
