I've been through two ice storms and a blizzard that we lost power in for over a week and two hurricanes with much the same result, all in all I think the ice storms and blizzard were easier to deal with, at least they don't come with clouds of voracious blood draining mosquitoes you can't keep out because all your windows and screens are six counties away.

I've got to get prescriptions refilled. Plus my car needs to be inspected before the end of this month. I don't think I can put off going out any longer. Damn that groundhog anyway!

The driving here stinks, you take your life in your hands just trying to get out of side streets! The snow is so high, I've nearly been clipped a few times.

My last job was one month ago today. The company that checks out credit records on trucking companies totally understands. They said call when I want to go back on-call.

Lucky for me I have a short commute, still not good. It's the "morans", that you have to watch out for. One person flew out right in front of me, they nearly did a 360. Lucky for me I was going about 10 mph, as the snow was coming down hard. Where the hell did they have to get to so fast?

Stay safe~

Normally there would be 8-10 feet of snow at pass levels (5000 feet elevation.) This year - nothing. It is going to be one hell of a forest fire season.

Warning, long promo at the end. No big deal. Just kill it if you don't want to watch.
