The Scrabbled: Making Fun of Each Other since '99

I was gonna go take some photo’s today, but when I woke up I was so cold I didn’t want to get out of bed. Also I had the flu recently and my body isn’t quite 100 percent.

So what did I end up doing today?

I don’t know if the news about this storm got to all you South Jersey/Philly folk, but it was really intense and strange for this part of the world.

I am convinced that nature has it out for me. Too many years of loudly proclaiming that when I am I homeowner, I’ll not do any of that boring-ass yard work like mowing and shoveling snow that my dad does. I’ll just pay kids to do it. It started three days before we moved in and mother nature was all, “Oh, you thought that sucked? Check this one out! More snow then you’ve gotten in the past 20 years!”

And not one damn kid has shown up yet offering to shovel.

Come summer, I fully expect a Day of the Triffids type scenario where all the grass starts growing at an exponential rate (as it seems everything does these days) and trying to eat me.

I’ve been reading about Ike about to hit Galveston (I’m sort of a weather dork) and have been just dumbfounded by the amount of people not leaving the area.

I mean, they’re forecasting freakin’ death! Certain Death! Then Christina pointed out that they have this dude standing guard..
