It's a beautiful day out there. A soft, powdery snow has been coming down, and in places where here's been no snow clearing, it's very high. As I was walking past Phillips Square this morning on my way to work, the snow on one side of the trench was up to my chest.

We're also getting that white wind you get with powdery snow. Because it's carried so easily by wind, that kind of snow gets carried easily by the wind.

Speaking of ice, Iceland's got a new prime minister. She's the first openly lesbian leader of a country anywhere in the world, and the first openly homosexual world leader of a democratic country in modern times.

It seems appropriate to post the video for Icelandic band Sigur Rós's song "Viðrar vel til loftárása." Anyone who's seen the video will know why ^_^

When I posted this, Wikipedia was already calling her prime minister. It's since changed.
