Get dry, Matt!
Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

I'm glad you're okay! But I'm also laughing bitterly, because where I'm from, being able to drive out of a ditch the ice tossed you in is a valued skill.
I do possess some measure of that skill, but not enough to remove a car that entered the ditch backwards and sideways and ended up with a snapped fence post jammed into the wheel well above the rear axle. The tailspin on the highway threw me off my game.
Also sadly lacking in the superhuman strength necessary to lift the car out manually and chuck the fence post like a javelin, which would have been my first choice of extraction method.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Even though I had a perfectly good lunch (turkey and brie sandwich), now I want a snack!! Like, cheese balls or something. Also, I want Greek food or pizza for dinner, even though I have perfectly good Thai leftovers in my fridge.
I have many food-related wants.

Damn, Matt, that sucks. Very glad to hear you're okay. I didn't realize you were still getting teh snow. I remember Memphis in snow, scarey place.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That sucks, Matt. I'm glad you're okay.
So, what are people doing this weekend?
Puppy Bowl! And rehearsal.

I hope everything's ok (or at least, relatively inexpensive to fix) on your car, Matt! Glad to hear you're all right.
I'm going to do laundry and cleaning tonight and tomorrow, try and get antibiotics into my cat tonight in preparation for her teeth cleaning on Monday, and watch football on Sunday. Oh, and I'll be finally watching my Netflix disc as well, so I can get it sent off on Monday, as well as finishing off my library books that are waaaay overdue.

Oh, and Puppy Bowl!! Much better than the usual pre-game blather. Comcast's OnDemand has previews with puppies that are just too damn cute!
OnDemand also has really good season overviews for both teams called the Championship Chase, using a lot of the top-quality NFL Films footage and edited in an occasionally snarky way (one of the Bears recaps was narrated using soap-opera titles).

Sorry for the ditching, Matt.
I hope to do my taxes, get the emissions done, salon, clean, laundry and grocery shop. And I've got to come up with one more house-y thing to do that isn't routine. I've discovered doing at least one thing like that every weekend makes me feel all accomplished and shit. Which is nutty, but there you go.
