Almost! Let me get you up to speed:

- I didn't win any prizes for NaBloPoMo. I was saddened by this.

- I got scolded by a lady who I visually estimated to be 143 years old because I stopped in front of the scratch-off lotto vending machine at the grocery store.

- It started snowing early Monday morning, and with a few brief exceptions, it didn't stop until late Wednesday. I cleared snow off my driveway more times this week than I did for the entire month of December last year. Not that I keep detailed records of how frequently I clear snow from my driveway, I just happen to remember that it didn't really snow at all last December.

And that's about it. Now I'm off to start my whirlwind comment tour, coming soon to a blog near you.
