I was hoping Tree had some happy funtime snow pictures, since Colorado has been covered by like 25 inches of snow.

I just shoveled for the first time since I was 20. Still remember how to do it.

It's been really great. Almost everyone is walking around in the roads so as not to get soaked. Only a few cars. So cool seeing so many people out and yet its so quiet.

Last night I walked one of my friends home and we stopped at her friends' apartment where I got dosed as fuck and slept in their bathtub while the three of them made the long walk to the grocery store to get some snacks. I woke up feeling fine as wine and greeted by french burnt peanuts and three snow covered but happy people.

No work for me either. Funny photos, but on someone else's camera.

The CRV and boat are not mine.

I am jealous. Here in central Ohio, we have had no snow this season except for an isolated dusting, and tomorrow, the first full day of winter, temps are forecasted to hit 60.

Which of course means we'll have a snowstorm in April.

Yeah, my dad (he's in C-Bus, too) emailed to let me know that it's 60 there and he can get his car in the garage because there isn't a 2.5/ft show drift in his driveway. It may be warm there now, but I will take sunny CO winters over dreary, depressing OH winters, that's for damn sure.

In April 2001, we got a blizzard that shut stuff down, nothing like this, but bad enough that I couldn't get my car out. Later that day, the sun came out and melted everything. The next day, it was like it had never happened.

Weather!

In the supermarket this morning I saw a man wearing a Fleetwood Mac fleece. This is a hard garment to describe. It was predominantly two shades of green, one mint and one dark. From the neck down was an area of white material forming what I can only call a bib. Beneath this bib, in white on green across the stomach, were the words 'Fleetwood Mac'. I could only see his left elbow clearly, but where the shades of green changed at that point were more words, written around the arm in a circle, that said 'Tango In The Night'. It might be the worst piece of band-related clothing I've ever seen, or it might be the best.

Last night I was hanging out in a bar with tipcat and we were sitting next to these guys who were obviously more inebriated than we were.
The guy sitting sitting right next to me is trying to balance his half finished beer on his head.
tipcat tells me to look out because I'm directly in the beer's path if it falls. Naturally it does fall and I get covered in beer, but since it's Christmas I don't care and accept their apology.
A few minutes later, the guy next to me says this:

Drunk Guy: This place needs to stay open later.
Me: Sure
Drunk Guy: I've got a gun. I can give it to you and you can fire a couple shots in the air.
Me: ...
Drunk Guy: We should hold this place hostage.
Me: ...

I turned away after this not sure what to think.
I tell tipcat I'm leaving and I walk as fast as I can from the bar.

Did you leave Tipcat there at the bar by himself?!

which bar was this?

My face looks small, and my hair looks big: I just shaved my beard.
