Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

EXACTLY. Have the right soup spoon, whitey.

Huh.

Always Anti-fascist!

I don't have them either, Jesse.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Try the muffin spoon.

Ha! Now I want a Chinese spoon and a muffin.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It's really a pretty shitty month. Bad weather, weak sunlight. But it's all, "Hey, I'm the new year, resolute and shiny!" When in fact it's in the bleak midwinter.

I kind of hate January, but February seems worse because I'm fucking OVER winter. The weather in March is almost as bad, but at least the days are longer, and there's that one 65 degree day that is also really windy. In Phoenix, winter is pretty much over by late February, which is long enough.

Yeah, I always find February worse, because by that point you're like "OMG, is winter EVER GOING TO END?!?!?" In March, you can at least pretend spring is right around the corner. You can make plans. But February, nooooo....

January you're at least distracted by the holidays and the new year and all that jazz, for a little bit.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

January and February get to me because all the Christmas and New Year festivity is over, but it's still dark and dreary. By March and April I'm still sick of the rain, but at least I'm not waking up and then coming home from work in the dark.

Our wings are not tired.

Trying to decide whether to attempt to explain to the family why I am laughing so hard.

This is the absolute best time of year in S. Florida. Highs around 80 lows in mid 60s. Love it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Laura, you're lucky we love you, because that kind of good-weather gloating can get a girl noogied.

I really need to work out a way to spend the winter in Florida.

As much as it always feels as if February will never end, the first two weeks of January are always the worst for me because of a lack of work (I've worked about 5-6 hours this year so far). If it weren't for the cats I'd probably stay in bed nearly the whole two weeks. Once I start back to work (Monday!) life doesn't seem quite so pointless.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Today we had some guys in to move furniture around. We put the old TV in the playroom (and I had to do all the component hook up). Tuesday, the installers are coming to put up the plasma tv and the surround sound speakers.

The question remains whether to get a second HD DVR from the cable company.

I'm patently ignoring Laura's weather related post.
