Slow Apocalypse

Weekend! Praise Jah! It was a long week and snow is back on the ground. It never got past 25F today. That's -3.8 C. Fucking cold is what it is.

A world in white gets underway

We have MLK Day off, but then a full week as I am subbing for someone else.

I'm reading Slow Apocalypse by John Varley. It's about an unknown bacteria that eats all the oil in the world and the ensuing breakdown. It's fairly terrifying. No oil = no goods, no food, no medical supplies, no police, no fireman! It means we're hosed.
