Now another car is up tight against the other end of my driveway. They could have pulled up another foot or two. This one doesn't have an excuse. The end of the driveway was clear and visible.

Illegally parked car finally moved. I still have snow to remove.

Person across the street finally got his car moving. He was parked on the street and got plowed in pretty badly.

If it comes to that, I have an adequate food supply, plenty of blankets, and a cat.

I might not be able to leave home today. In addition to the snow there's an illegally parked car blocking me in and I'm not sure if I can move enough snow to get around it. Would rather not have that towed since it's likely they couldn't tell where the driveway was when they parked.

Time to shovel snow

If you're using words from three different languages to order a single drink, ask your barista what that's really called.

The cat continues to disapprove of me leaving the house.

Turned on a space heater to keep the kitchen pipes from freezing, but the heater is making noises that the cat must investigate.

Obtained food and cat litter.

Need to visit a grocery store after work. My food supply at home is down to ramen, cereal, and ice cream. The cat would probably appreciate a fresh supply of litter, too.

@fribbledom This fact was used as flavor to explain a core plot mechanic in the game "9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors".

Troubleshooting with someone and "reverse the polarity" is a legit possibility.

My sister wanted a sign to use while sampling a coffee with not very much text that people can look at and feel like they learned something. As "not a graphic designer" and someone who prefers long form writing this is very much not playing to my strengths, but here's sign #1, made with the GNU Image Manipulation Program.

Health food is the worst thing to happen to food.

Need to talk with my sister (who owns the other 50% of the business) about having the shop reimburse for business travel.

Booked flight and hotel for the event in April. The hotels are all either too expensive or too far away.

Another Rorona DX glitch in the post-game. Somehow the back left enemy in Machina Domain first floor fell through the ground enough that it's impossible to start a battle. Moving to a lower area fixes things.

Someone dropped off a stack of free magazines at the shop and there's a page in it with local date night recommendations. I don't know what people do for dates anymore but the ideas on that page all seem like horrible ideas.
