  1. So much for the brief bit of relief for my poor furnace.
    Looking like -3 and -5 the next few nights.

  3. A tad surprised that McLean Unit 5 didn’t call for an e-learning day when they prepped for it given how many of the kids are from the country, but thankfully we live close to my son’s school so it wasn’t an issue for us.

    Also, looking forward to Bloomington’s ECHL team name to be announced. There’s apparently a rumor for Bloomington Bison based on a Twitter account by that handle that was made about a month prior to the ECHL awarding a franchise here.

  6. “School District Demands News Article on Illegal Book Ban Meeting be Altered – Yorkville, Illinois”

    Hello newspaper 100 miles away. Stop printing facts, and print our preferred PR release instead, like what’s left of local reporting has been doing here in the Yorkville area.

    Just another day in the exurbs.

  7. After digging two people out of snow drifts last week, I got to dig myself out this morning when I slid off the driveway path onto the drifts in my yard.

    It’s sort of like going to a cardiologist and finding out that your heart if fine at 65. Invigorating. So much so you cannot believe the amount of cussing you can do if you only try.

    Made it to class on time, which is what truly matters. The snow will melt. Education must go on.

  8. Sunny today going up to double digits above zero here in beautiful DuPage County. This reminds me of winters when I was a kid. Maybe I’ll get into a snowball fight this afternoon?

  9. people digging out of snow and now people digging wet concrete out of the Chicago Rat Hole, filled in by some anonymous killer of joy.

  10. Am I just tempting fate? Gulp….I haven’t seen one piece of election flyers yet. How will the USPS survive without the onslaught of my mailbox?
