outside. 3-4" of fresh snow, turns that gray bleak environment into a winter wonderland. Pity those poor snowbelt dwellers, up to 18" or more in the northeast counties.... Plus I did my good deed for the week by towing some yoyo out of a ditch. Some young kid had his ford escort ditched quite well - I made him wade thru the muck and mire to hook the chains up though.....

I did it for free today My mom's drive, the gf's drive and my own. That's probably all I'll do this year unless some folks ante up some coins.

we're getting the snow now, it was too late to cancel or delay school, but bus drivers have come into the building to say that if it keeps snowing, they'll have trouble getting the kids home.

yee-haw. i just had the toyota sled out for the first time this year. no steering, locked up brakes --- almost all the way to the bus stop! a record for me -- and no mailboxes were lost. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
to my credit -- it's a van, with rear-wheel drive. a virtual dinosaur in the freekin' snow.

While we're talking about weather... it's actually getting somewhat cold around here. 33 last night, supposed to be in the mid 20's tonight. High for today of "only" 46.

I thought of Flickerstick...
You could be the devil in my bed
You could be the angel in my head
You could be the voices that I hear
I'm singing along because it sounds just like you're near
Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
