and yet more snow

[derien]

The snow is coming down in pillowcases.  No, somehow that phrase doesn't work.  I was thinking 'rain comes down in buckets, snow comes down in pillowcases,' but I don't think it really projects the appropriate feeling. 

And, coincidently, I just got a notice that I've been added to the parkingban list.  The idea is, if they need to put on a parking ban so they can remove snow from the streets, they notify us through this list.  However, the disclaimer on the subscription notice makes me think the list is completely useless:

The City of Portland, Maine disclaims any and all liabilitiy for
damages or otherwise which might arise as a result of any information
posted by this service or the use of this service by the subscriber.
Further, Subsciber understands that they are using this service at
their own risk and that the City of Portland, Maine is not
guaranteeing the receipt of information received by subscriber on a
timely basis. 

Sooo... what they're saying is that I really have to phone their automated line anyhow, even if the list doesn't notify me of a ban, or my car might end up begin towed.  What's the point?

In other news, I'm working on that j/w/g story, this morning.  I just painted myself into a corner with the use of condoms being associated with promiscuity, and Jeeves being offended, because he (of course) uses them for cleanliness.  I can't imagine him being anything but fastidious, even in the middle of sex.

When I was little I used to be convinced that snow had to go through some sort of sieve to come out like it did. Like you sieve flour. Was kind of disappointed that it didn't.

Ooh, bad move, bad move, whoever said that. You never want to start a discussion with Jeeves when you're already half or entirely naked, because he WILL put a stop to things. In the politest way possible.

Oh, don't worry - I wouldn't expect you to leave a Daegaer fic for me. ;)

*blush* Well, you know, any other person I'd do it in the blink of an eye, but this is DAEGAER! Patron Saint of all that is Ineffable.
