The freezing rain arrived, probably at least a half hour ago. Looks like it is still coming down. It's definitely still too cold to melt things and, in fact, seems to just be crusting the snow from what I can see. I am not exploring this real carefully since I can just hide inside and go on with my work, however.

The bush out by the side of the house, with the glossy dark green leaves, looked quite normal when I saw it. But on a hunch I reached out to touch it, and they were coated over in ice. Cheery, that...poor plants. Oh, well. They're mostly suited for this, better than I am, and it is very pretty weather.

I even remembered that the house heat would drop to "chilly" on the weekday cycle, and turned the space heater on before it did so. It makes me less likely to take time off from my work to wander the house, because the rest of the house is, although far from freezing, cold. Here I have my music (radio station over the internet, I am so lazy), my work, and my warmth. In a couple hours I shall have to brave the chill for lunch, but I'm sure I can heat it quickly and run back up. :)
