Jeez...poor babies!

Cancelling events, what a bunch of sugar-britches! 

It was -17 when I got up yesterday morning, and I still went out into to world, visited my folks and fixed whatever they thought needed fixing, dropped some clothes off at Goodwill, hit the Kwik Trip.  Suck it up buttercups!



Winter, it gets cold, yo!

And it isn't all bad news!

The combination with NYE brings about TMI news reports...

Some revelers gave up their secret: adult diapers.

“So far, it’s dry, and I’m hoping to keep it that way,” said Dallas teacher Heather Feist, 32, who began lining up at 9:30?a.m.

Others were not so lucky.

“I’ll definitely need to shower after peeing my pants all day,” said Ayame Yamakawa, 21, who traveled 22 hours from Okinawa, Japan, just for New Year’s Eve. She had already wet herself once by 2:41 p.m. after lining up at 10 a.m.

Gross.

But the cold isn't dampening presstitutes and potheads...

Currently 35 deg F in Moscow.  Balmy compared to here.

Damn! We certainly could use a little collusion regarding that Russian weather . . !

Twenty-two degrees right now, up from seventeen at 6 a.m.

Might be considered a heat wave to y'all in Minnie, but this is North Carolina.

 Yup theyre talking 12 to 18 in Boston I'm not sure what my kid is in for  but she better have the generator gassed up and kerosene for the heater. Wind and cold air just suck the heat out of a house.

Well, the cold here in NC is going to come in handy; the refrigerator fan crapped out today and can't be replaced until tomorrow (I HOPE!)

He'll not be doing it this time; the guy is bringing the part tomorrow, when G. is at work, and I'll just have him do it.

No, Nessie (blue truck) still in garage; alternator didn't come in until today, so I ran and picked it up between trips shuttling stuff to the freezer out there.

I need a nap.  And a glass of wine.  It's five o'clock somewhere, right?

  I would suggest the wine before the nap.    ::thinking::

Didn't get the wine 'til 7 and the nap will have to wait for bedtime ......... an early one.

Oh, and it's snowing like hell here.  I doubt the fridge fan is gonna make it tomorrow.  Argh.

I read Charleston got 5".  Boston harbor freezing up.  Fountains freezing up in Charlotte.  Dogs and cats living together, mass pandamonium!

It's so so damn cold up here with that Arctic blanket over us we aren't allowing any moisture in to create much snow.





But, this stuff happens in winter and sometimes this stuff sinks lower and raises heck down south.

Winter happens.  It's not man-made anything, it's nature.  The only debate is if we are once again entering another one of those natural cycles - a Maunder Minimum...judging from continued low solar activity that is a possibility...but man doesn't have jack to do with it.

Was reading the good book yesterday:

Genesis 8:22
"While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, And COLD and HEAT, And summer and winter, And day and night Shall not cease."
