I'm cold
and I'm sleepy. And it's snowing and it wasn't supposed to and the windows are down on my car.

x(

And I've got too much to do to be sitting here at 12:30 and posting -- but I'm doing it anyway, so neener.

2. I don't know what it is out there right now...
too cold, I know that much.

And I'm gonna have a snowdrift in the front seat of my car.

Shit.

6. I had a snowdrift on the seat of my car too.
What a great way to end a day of work. Either way, I was just trying to make you feel better about the weather situation. It was minus 30 two weeks ago?!?!?! Just trying to put things in perspective.

10. Y'know...you've got something there.
It was. So tonight it's better.

And I'll take paper or something out to sit on. And maybe it's that really dry, powdery snow that I can just brush out.

Yeah. That's it. And the plows will have been out in force, so the roads aren't going to be bad at all...

There.

You could be in Northern Minnesota. And if that still doesn't help, Jagermeister works wonders.

12. The fireplace makes me remember how
cold I am. And how my fireplace is at home.

Where I'm not. And where it's too late to light, anyway.

:(

The hugs are nice, though.

Or else you'll have to go fuck yourself. :P

14. I'm more worried about knocking the snow
OUT of the Mommyvan.

I really don't wanna sit in it.

Plus, if I have to sit in it, I'll wind up so numb that I wouldn't be able to tell who was fuckin' whom or even if...

*ahem*

26. It's 20 degrees here in NC, Reid Reyd Reed.
I got several sources of heat. The regular circulating heating system, set for 70 degrees, a propane heater in the center of the house and a couple of electric space heaters.

Even with all that, you can feel the cold coming through the windows. There is snow in the forecast even here, but I have not seen any yet.

Did you put the windows up?? You'll be sorry if you don't, in the morning.

29. I'll be sorry that I didn't in about ten minutes
I'm at work and the door handles on my car don't work from the outside, so when the forecast is for clear skies, I leave the window halfway down so that I don't have to crawl in through the back.

When I got here at 5:45, they said no snow.

It's snowing. Shit.

35. I just drove home from a show
pretty nasty out, although the main streets were just a little wet.

I hate having to clean off the car and scrape the windows after a gig. Load out sucks enough on its own.

46. That's what I thought.
Last night, on my way home, the wind was blowing me all over the highway. And it wasn't much better today...and now it's snowing?

Someone needs to just break down and knock a window into the wall in the meteorologists' offices.

Tell ya what...put some dry beans or some rice or something in there and warm it up and then put it by your feet. Not only will your feet get warmer, but it'll attract the dog, too -- and your feet'll STAY warmer.
