Mood

I woke up at 3:30 this morning and could not fall back asleep. I admitted defeat at ten 'til four and got up. Looked outside to see a solid covering of snow. Pulled on layers and shoveled the walk. You can imagine my mood after the winning combination of weather and insomnia.

12-9

I forgot to get something at the store last night for dinner tomorrow. Stellar. So I'll have to go out in this tonight. And there's a home basketball game. [livejournal.com profile] stuology is saving my life on this one! Stellar!

Just shoot me now. My friends are awesome! Thank you, Stu!

Twenty-eight days until vacation.

Maybe because I'm only in my second year of home ownership, but, the idea of getting up before work and shoveling snow...just seems...ludicrous to me. I saw a guy out at 6:30 while I was driving to work doing his driveway and....yeack!
Kudos to your ability to brave the gross.

Our sidewalk is so heavily traveled that if I don't shovel before I leave for work, it will be trampled down into nearly solid ice by 5:00 p.m. And then it's impossible to remove with anything short of a pick axe and blow torch.

I would personally pay many dollars to see you wielding a pick-axe and a blow-torch.

You should've known me in 1990 when I was in Fine Arts. Plenty of opportunity to see me at least with a blow torch!

I'm not even gonna say it...

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah. You were still in grade school. What-ever!

Insomnia AND snow shoveling AND driving in snow.

'Tis the season for rejoicing, is it not?


:p

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, indeed.

I have so much rejoicing it is oozing out my pores. Can you see it? Can you see the ooze?

Pah.

Well, at least you look poretty splendid there. Loving the eyes. :)

Thank you!

I knew I should take the pic this morning. After nine hours in my freezing office, my hair is wrecked from wearing a hat all day. =(

I'm going out to run errands again this afternoon. I can pick up your store item if you like.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my dear god you are an angel. I need a bag of shredded sharp cheddar. Generic is fine, since it's just going in a casserole. If [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick isn't home when you drop it off, toss it in the mailbox. And I will totally repay you at a later date, either in cash or booze. Hell, if [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick answers the door when you knock, tell him you're taking your pick of any wine bottle on the counter (I recommend the Goats Do Roam or the Delas). We also have a lovely French white in the fridge if you'd like to try that.

Srsly. Thank you.

Do you want the thicker or thinner shred?

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't matter in the slightest. It'll all get melted anyway in the 350 degree oven. Which sounds so good right now.

[identity profile] stuology.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It's in your mailbox!

[identity profile] shanmonster.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Nice stinkeye!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-09 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm a pro at that.

Remind me never to cross you and your evil eye...

You look like either

A) a wet cat

OR

B) you were stood up at the prom.
(That's probably just the fabulous eyeshadow talking tho.)

:D

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-10 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Definitely A). I think if someone ever stood me up for a big event, the photo would likely include firearms. Or at the least, a big shovel.

I consider myself very confident I can handle myself well. Like I said to you in Flikr I would move myself to the other side of the street if I saw you coming my way with that face.



*classic you should keep that pic as one of your moods*

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-10 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't use moods, but it does make a very nice icon.

I can not help it but to smile at the snow. Still a kid and I enjoyed those days when snow fell and I would get a snow day. This may also be perverted but I love the cold. You can always put on more clothes when it is hot when you are naked and still hot you are screwed. Food taste better in winter it is rich wine drinks better mead and rum also. The kitchen is closed up no open windows so you can really smell the food cooking. Winter rocks

I understand that some people like the cold weather. But I am rarely, if ever, too hot. Sometimes, I get cold even in the summer. It stinks. Brrrrrrr
