Sometimes we can go for 2 - 3 winters and not get that cold. It's not super rare or anything, but not what one could call common.

Did some chores then drove 90 miles for a "local" "house" hockey game. (9-0 loss) then back again. Team stats for the year 0-20-0... poor lambs. They've gotten so much better, though. We played the same team at home last night and got to only 24seconds remaining before we were mercied.... And Thunder Boy looks pretty good these days

I only worked a half day today as a good friend had an emergency need for on site child care due to his wife's cheese having slid off of her cracker temporarily. As we are allegedly about to have Icepocalypse 2017, I was happy to be off early and home by 3:00.
No ice yet as of this writing, though.

They moved the Chiefs game back to 8:20 over that storm.
Should be an interesting game. I also had a half day. Finance Round Table meeting from 10-12:30, then home. Failed to nap, then spent the rest of the day hanging with tarheel. Cleaned up some stuff from the move, and did a little pottery. Watching Tree House Masters now, and relaxing. Good weird day

I am as big a Chiefs fan as there is...and I know that my team fucking CHOKES in the playoffs. It would be pretty amazing it they gave Big Ben the old heave-ho this weekend.
Better yet would be Houston taking out the Cheatriots. That would be AFC Championship at Arrowhead.

As long as Andy doesn't have to make any quick decisions in real time, I think they have a shot.
I've predicted a Cowboys Chiefs Super Bowl. Just 2 (X2) games to go to get there.

My day was uneventful. Mr. Clod's day, however, was packed with things--all of which were things I didn't want to do myself, so his day was like the paired electron to mine.
--He picked up the stepdaughter at 8:30 AM and drove her to her job (because she wrecked her car last week and it wasn't repaired yet.) --He shifted the kids' computers down the desk (now that there are only three of them sharing the space) which involved a fair amount of rewiring. --He repaired the stripped anchor that's supposed to hold the upright bathroom cabinet against the wall --He hung 2 more strings of lights outside on the pergola --He put the cooler back in the attic (it had come down a week ago for his birthday celebration) --He picked up the stepdaughter when she got off work at 5:30, and then took her to the mechanic to pick up her car, and then went to Home Depot to get one more box of hooks for the last string of pergola lights. --And THEN, just for good measure, he got us tickets to see La La Land tomorrow night. Like, whut? Okay, in fairness, I did do some stuff now that I think about it. I cooked a batch of muffins, 10 hamburger patties, honey roasted almonds, and dinner; plus oversaw Minifob's tutoring session and finished up the church's tax letters. I also watched the first episode of the new "Lemony Snicket" show with the kids, which is hilarious and has beautiful effects. Still, I'd definitely rather have my day than his. |

So he did those "manly" things you wouldn't expect a poor little me to do.
I think you left out paying the mechanic.

I got a jackass a citation tonight. Either for racing or speeding or something like that.
Am I a bad person for enjoying a little schadenfreude? I wish I had video of it but my dashcam chose this evening to freeze up and not record anything until I noticed and rebooted..... too late. The basic story: I was just leaving my customer in Scottsburg, IN en route to a truck stop to sleep. Buddy comes alongside my rig at the light before the interstate and yells up to me that he bets his truck is faster than mine. :/ I was just going to ignore his blather, but then the evil angel got the better of me and I yelled back to him "Oh yeah? I bet you ain't! Here to the next light on green!" Of course, he couldn't back down from a challenge with his friends in the truck with him, so he revs up his 1990-something Ram with a boosted fuel pump (so he can "roll coal") and pops the clutch the instant the light turned green. He lays a patch and flies past the cop I remembered seeing on the way in sitting in the parking lot of the liquor store on the corner at, oh, I'd say 55-60 mph. Cop lights up on him and has him on the shoulder before the light. Since technically I made the next light first, does this mean I won? LOL |
