And, no, Nemo in this case isn’t a cute little clownfish. Nemo was a giant record setting Blizzard/Hurricane that just dropped 2-3 feet of snow on us and flooded out parts of the New England coastline. Whee?
On to the pictures.

So yes, we got some snow, and as David Epstein said on his weather blog, some of the recorded snowfall amounts were epic. I am not sure what our official amount is, but I am positive we got over 20 inches easily.
Kelly and I headed out this afternoon to clear the steps and the walk and even with both of us working (even using our little snowblower) it took a little while to clear just a path through the snow, much less clear the walk, which at this point would be impossible. There’s simply too much to move and nowhere to put it.
I managed to get a few photos before it got dark. The snow had not started coming down too hard just yet, but it was awfully scenic.
And as you all know, as January ends we enter the doldrums of winter. We’re experiencing a freak break in the cold with temps in the 50’s today. But it will get freezing again.

One of my favorite political bloggers (John Aravosis over at AmericaBlog) loves animals so much that he now has a whole section of his website devoted to pets. Just like Kelly and me, he often talks about the latest goings-on of his own animal companion and those of his friends on the blog.
Recently, he put up a post discussing the phenomenon of cats that act like dogs. And he included a video.
I usually expect stuff of this caliber to come from Etsy. This time, it’s Fab.com and their weekly Foodie email that brings the goods. There’s really nothing to add, this one stands on its own.

This is our 500th post here at KellyandGeoff.com. Geoff and I were wondering what to write. Perhaps we should observe the occasion with something special?
Then we came across these links and realized that we had to share them with the world. Sometimes, you just have to go with what finds you. Thank you, internet.

Every so often there is an internet cat meme that I just really, ridiculously love. Grumpy Cat just makes me ridiculously happy. I think she might be my totem animal.
You can imagine then that I was forced to stop in the freezing cold the other day and take these photos.

The first time I met David Sedaris was at a book signing several years ago. I met him again in 2010 when Geoff and I saw him read and sign Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk at the Harvard Book Store. Last Tuesday I worked a private event for the book store in which I got to spend about an hour and a half just sitting and chatting with David Sedaris.
Yes, there are times when my life is awesome.
Hi folks. It’s that time again. Spring music making in Boston is almost upon us. I’ve been receiving a lot of mail lately about audition opportunities and upcoming concerts. Some of these I’ll repost individually later as the date of the concert approaches.
