… in the sense of putting the evil eye on it, rather than swearing at it. Why? Well, because there isn’t any.

This always happens (well, it’s at least the third year this has happened). The forecasters predict snow to follow the next day. I decide to work from home because the travel conditions will be bad. I wake up the next morning - no snow. I wait all day - no snow.

It’s embarrassing.

However, the weather is bloody cold - I just went out to feed the birds and nearly froze. It’s a good thing that my cats all have thick fluffy coats, seeing as they live outdoors/in the garage.
