snow

Snow Day 1? AWESOME. Magical. Work from home! Sweatpants! Hot sandwiches, cold winter beer, frolicking in powder and playing. Fresh, pure, and enchanting. Everyone out and smiling. Hot toddys and snowballs. A dazzling performance by Mother Nature. The weather was fun, spirited, joyous, and merry.

Snow Day 3+? Ummmm. Fballs. So over it. Before we knew it busses were flying over interstate barriers, butt bones are bruised city wide, my wood floors are a mess, no one wants to go anywhere, and I'm stuck in my tiny apartment watching an awkward youtube video over and over and over (seriously…and over and over) again. Because I've already watched EVERYTHING recorded on my DVR; an unprecedented occurrence since 2006 B.DVR.. Even the really depressing episodes of Frontline. Even Rhinestone. Been flipping between Rocky III and Christmas made for TV movies on Lifetime. Why is Shrek on 24 hours a day? I killed 20 minutes trying to figure out what else I could put peanut butter on. Saltines and pretzels? Rad. Baked cheddar and sour cream ruffles? Significantly less rad.

I was watching a program about toys on QVC earlier. It just made me want legos.

I think the guys on Myth Busters have a crush on each other.

You know the moment your foot starts to slip on ice, your body tenses and your entire life flashes before your eyes (and you realize you shouldn't have given your twinkie to Lance Kostoff in 1st grade for nothing when Josh Ladd had offered you an entire hershey bar for it, because obviously everyone then knew you liked him)? If I make the involuntary "oooop!" noise one more time I'm going to punch myself in the face. It's still coming down right now. Busses are unreliable. I'm too scared to go anywhere. Everyone is gone for the Holidays. My hands are too cramped and sweaty to play anymore xbox. My holiday party got canceled due to road conditions. At least I'll probably end up eating the entire tub of sugar cookie dough I bought for it. I thought about trying to make a SnObama in my courtyard, but brrr. My thermostat hasn't been below 80 in 3 days. HOW DO PEOPLE LIVE PLACES THAT ARE COLDER THAN THIS?!

I guess I should do this.

I really might be going crazy. I feel like when I finally go back to work or can leave a three block radius I'm going to show up with red lipstick on the outside of my lips ranting about episodes of Modern Marvels and drinking schnapps out of mini bottles. Not peppermint. Peach. CAUSE I'M CRAZY.
