    Not snowed in, but still can't get anywhere thanks to this ****ing flu.

      No snow here, either, but the end of Feburary is pretty much the end of winter in Texas

        It's brisk here today. It's about 33 F / 1 C, but gusts of wind up to 35 mph.

        Apparently, the beltway was a parking lot this morning because one tractor trailer was blown against another, causing a huge wreck. Also, there's lots of power outages.
        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

          It snowed last night/this morning, but we only got ~1 inch and it's very, very wet snow that is likely to melt today. It started as rain.

          Boo. This winter has SUCKED.

            On Sunday, my children picked flowers for me in the garden. On Thursday, it took me an hour of showeling to get my car out. I hate showeling snow! Today, the road to my job was blocked by 5 trucks that were stuck in drifting snow piles.

            Did I mention that my great grandfather died from a heart attack while showeling snow. He was only 40, and left a widow and 12 children behind.

              You may want to invest in a snowblower.

                Yah, should have had the kids do the showeling.

                    Apparently it should lighten up by tomorrow. Rain is expected, and that REALLY melts snow in a hurry.

                    That does me little good, however, because I am now out of cigarettes. The car is still a no go, so I face a 2 hour walk (1 hour there, 1 hour back) to get a measly pack of cigerettes. GRRR

                        11:40 AM CST A severe thunderstorm warning could be issued Friday evening, as hail and strong winds are expected for parts of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. National Weather Service meteorologists said there was a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms and winds in excess of 60 miles per hour.

                                Oh no you don't! We're not getting into a "what are you wearing" discussion with an FBI agent posing as a 15yr old girl.
