Curse you, Thursday!

gale

Woke up to driving rain and gale-force winds this morning. I lay and bed and thought, “hey, at least it’s Friday.”

Shit.

To be fair, Uncle B tried to persuade me to accept a lift in this morning, but I was all like “no, no…it’s going to clear by noon! I’ll be fine!”

Shit.

Never trust an English weather forecast. It pissed down all day and both ways, and my end-of-the-week bike battery wasn’t up to a head wind. I’m counting the minutes to Gin o’Clock. See you tomorrow, when the sky will clear and it really will be Friday.

Tomorrow after work, I make chili.

Today after work, I figure out which &^%* box my can opener is lurking in…

It’s always gin o’clock somewhere to paraphrase J. Buffet.

I always hate those mornings when you discover you’re a day off and it’s not in your favor. Now sweet are the Fri mornings that you wake up in a grump thinking it’s only Thurs and realize your mistake. It’s like being given a gift!

All the ads at Ace’s for me are fur hats.

HAHAHAHAHA!

Sorry about your poopy commute Stoatster. Didn’t you get some flavor of Miata at some point, or am I misremembering?

It actually snowed here! A little and outside my metro area, but still, snow in early Dec., when I thought we’d still be sweating until Advent, is neat.

As I drove to work I found the traffic was relatively light. Noo Awlins people freeze up if the temps drop below 50 F., especially if it’s raining or (mirabile dictu!) snowing.

Oh, I got a Miata alright, Pups. What I didn’t get was my driver’s license.

Sore spot, do not touch.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
