OMG. While I was sitting here eating (baked!) Cheetos, someone walked over and gave me a chocolate. Snack attack!
The Crying of Natter 49
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I made the mistake of googling low-fat muffin recipes, and then when I stumbled across a good source of low-fat, good-for-the-diet recipes, I went and looked at them all and now am very hungry and craving Chive Buttermilk Biscuits.
And I wanted to clarify that I was laughing bitterly at myself and not at you, since I envy that you had a safe driving record until now. Between the weather and the deer, mine didn't last long.
Heh. Well, actually my unofficial driving history had me zipping into a ditch during a snowstorm 3 years ago to avoid being merged into by an inattentive semi driver. But that resulted in no damage, so it was between me and the towtruck driver, with the cops declining to file an accident report.
It's right on the edge of being cold enough to snow so it's raining, but with these huges chunks of snow plummetting suicidally to the earth. It's kind of strange.
Fenders suck. They are so spendy.
Yes, but I've been told that that's because they're so well made now that they absorb a lot of the impact of crashes that would otherwise be a lot worse. (Yes, DH is now doing auto insurance actuarial stuff and has learned some interesting things).
Still, sucks to replace them.
Between the weather and the deer, mine didn't last long.
Bet my mom's got you beat in the deer department.
I need someone to bring me a bucket.
Kidding. Burping helps.
I'm not wearing any Bears paraphernalia today, and people are eyeing me suspiciously. I feel like I need to make a badge that reads: "I'm not rooting for the Colts, you guys just didn't send me the freakin' MEMO."
...not that I own any Bears paraphernalia.

Still not too late to write "Bears Rule!" on your forehead with eyeliner, shrift! :: she typed cheerfully::
My dad's a Bears fan. Not huge, just average. Chicago was close enough for us to drive up to games. Soldier Field is where I first saw strange men strip naked in sub zero temperatures.
I consider it a milestone in my childhood.
