I was mocking my father for this last night - he JUST called me to warn me about the bad weather coming my way and urging me to get to the stores beforehand. They are only predicting 2-6 inches AND I am half a block from a grocery store.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

What is even happening?
These are called neighbor children. Actually, I don't know how much they charge, but when it snows heavily on the weekends or if school is closed, they amble by around 10am, shovels in hand, looking for business.Yeah. Ten miles north, that quaint practice died off in the very early 80s. In fact, I may have to blame my own generation.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Also, 826 Valencia is hiring. If I wanted to go back North and I wanted to come out of the classroom and still work with kids, that would be an ideal job.
I would SO love to work -- or even volunteer -- there.
And after yesterday's ear-wax conversation, I'm suddenly obsessed with the contents of my ear canal. I'm a freak.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That's what the ear canal monsters want you to think....

They are saying 4-6 inches here and they keep adjusting upwards. And I really should have gone grocery shopping last night but t whine I didn't wanna. t /whine So, since I don't want to eat grilled cheese sandwiches all weekend, and since I would run out of butter after about 2, I have to go this evening. I do have stores within walking distance, but I'm mainly worried about them going cowardly lion and closing (they have in the past.) I don't wanna. Still crossing my fingers I can make it to the VEIP before it gets too bad tomorrow morning. If I wake up early enough. Hah.

I am considering going to the store over lunch to avoid the Friday afterwork crowd - then I can sleep in on Saturday.

Precisely what I hope to do today. Unfortunately, tomorrow is a big paint-the-house day, so no sleeping in for yours truly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The children in my neighborhood don't do this. I blame iPods.

I'm afraid if I left work in the middle of the day, I'd have a hard time coming back.
On the OC last night, anyone else start snorting when Julie was describing her magazine concept? It was a summary of the OC! Hee.
