Friday? Wasn’t yesterday Friday?

Much less excitement today, although only because it didn’t snow again overnight. (More snow showers are predicted over the weekend.)

But, possibly worried that we might feel bad about that lack of snow, and perhaps thinking us already nostalgic for yesterday’s belated, half-assed job of clearing the station platform, the LIRR still hadn’t fully cleared my station. Everywhere one had to walk was cleared, but they’d quit without touching a whole length of track, which in the mornings is usually where I want to be. (I head uptown from Penn Station, so it’s better to be at the back of the train.)

But they finally finished clearing that by the time I got home. And the rest of the day was mostly just more of the same.

I’m glad the weekend’s here!
