65% of the country in covered in snow! Streetcar to work. A handful of breaks. Patty gets an early lunch. I take the two Sea Otters out to the playground. There's no one else to play with, but we have fun chasing bubbles. Back inside, the kids play with Mr. Potato Head while I set up lunches. Nice and mellow. They linger at lunchtime. Then right to sleep. Over to Dolphins. They're napping. Sid wakes up first. He keeps me busy. My last hour = This & That. Hang out with the Starfish. Then the Seahorses. Fold some laundry. Streetcar to Whole Foods. Pick up some tofu, salad bar and a bottle of Jaume Serra Cristalino. Save it for New Years Eve? No. I open it when I get home. Watch KOMO News. Something interesting in the weather blog - Seattle: 75 days of sun, followed by 75 days of rain. At least, it's balanced.
"We once thought that our solar system was unique: The only place you could find planets in the entire Universe. Now we know better. For the last twenty years we have been discovering planets at an amazing rate, but they are nothing like we expected. These are truly wild worlds, a collection of monsters. From deep-frozen, toxic snowballs, to scorched and boiling nightmares: Every one is worlds apart from the habitable paradise we know and love here on Earth. Having so far only discovered this zoo of planetary oddballs we must face the question: Is every planet out there a planet from hell?"
