The ever elusive snow day is back — and they said it couldn’t be done. It hardly seemed logical to believe the forecast of “ice pellets” while we were enjoying a sunny prepubescent spring afternoon yesterday. But behold, gentle reader, the pictures don’t lie:

In the time it’s taken me to upload the photos and write this post, the snow has continued and has started coming down in chunks. Yes. Chunks.


A beautiful day for delivering furniture — unfortunately, it is not mine.

And finally… the look of snow day

I haven’t been able to post as much as I would have liked lately, what with Paris’ cell phone list being leaked and all. You wouldn’t believe some of these calls. Anyway, this is quite unfortunate because I haven’t been able to document and report all the fantastic things that I have to report and document. All of the things I tell Jamelah, “I may have to blog that.”

So I’m ashamed. Especially since this is Samuel Pepys’ birthday and he didn’t have to make excuses for not writing everything down — he just did it. I will make a greater effort to follow his example and press on, as there are many tales left to tell and many made up words that need to be exposed for the frauds they are, such as Taco Bell’s recent introduction of the fake term “Stuft”. Your burritos are tasty without the fancy language, Taco Bell, so stop it.

Upward and onward …

Unlike Beck, I haven’t actually been crazy with the Cheez Whiz, but crazy with the clearance priced Valentine’s Day candy. (Also, I don’t have two turntables, but I do have a microphone. Check out some of the updated audio here.) Against my better judgement I picked up an extra bag of conversation hearts to prolong the high of my 22oz. bag that’s nearly empty. An almost too close to the harsh reality of my candy blitz, after the clearance discount, I think the new bag cost me about a dime. Yes. A dime bag. And it’s already Peeps season. I’m doomed.
