Quiet after the storm

So I'd heard rumblings that we might get another storm this weekend, consisting the ugly wintry mix I really despise this winter. Snow was only a maybe. I awoke to real honest to god white stuff. It's mostly stopped outside, but from the road reports, it isn't going to be pretty. There are calling for it to warm up over the week, so we might be spared the pure ice storm of Valentine's Day. After several mild winters with numerous near misses, Mother Nature is now making for lost time and a half. Who knew she got overtime?

menikoff posted a link to an extended preview for Showtime's "The Tudors". Oooh, look at the pretty. Everyone else can have their "Rome", but this one is right up my alley. Like her, I'm so terribly conflicted. The Tudor geek in me is curious and excited and the other part remembers that it is the same writer who did both Elizabeth and the upcoming The Golden Age. *whimpers*

I shall be curling up with a bowl of popcorn tonight for the Oscar festivities. Still have a few hours before the Red Carpet arrivals start for the fashion snark. Like Scarlett, I shall think about tomorrow... tomorrow.
