Heavy snow coming tonight

Heavy is the operative word here. A wet, heavy snow. Maybe seven inches or more. This could bring down the power lines out here in the sticks where, curiously, I find myself at this point in my life. If I disappear, you know the drill: remain calm and know that I'll be back as soon as I can.

PS: I just saw a news bulletin go by on the TV screen. It said "Nighttime bathroom trips make you less productive." Personally, peeing in my bed would make me less productive. But maybe that's just me.

See you tomorrow (hopefully).

The ice storm cometh

An ice storm is heading my way tonight, on top of the snowstorm that's still occurring. There's lotsa snow out there. So if I disappear from these fine intertubes for a day or so, have no fear. I will dig myself out and claw my way back here as soon as I can. 

But jeez, enough with the winter storms already. It's wearing on us; it really is. I've met so many people lately who are depressed. Their energy has been drained by the fierce cold and endless storms. We need Spring and baseball now! Do you hear me, Flying Spaghetti Monster? (And hey! It's only two weeks to pitchers and catchers, or is it catchers and pitchers? Either way: hoo hoo!)
