Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

not your mom's socks.

[link] finally finished the shoveling. Amy, we have the very same shovel issue. And the car has a snow-mowhawk because I couldn't get all the way across without a broom.

Brenda, that's ... wow, I hope they get the opportunity to make a public on-air apology followed by a presentation on the history and impact of sexist behavior in the media. Clad in only boxer shorts and ski hats, outdoors.

Shoveled out. Including the kitchen and porch roof. Of course, the tree is dumping crap all over my cleared walk. But 'tis done. Not doing the street, it's drivable.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

FML means fuck my life, right? Or something like that? It's negative slang, right?

Indeed, and Emmett loves that website and snickers over it for hours. Though, he will also moan in sympathy over some of the travails.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My mother told me about that website, and FML in general. Something is wrong here.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm wondering how I got my notion! Did I just make it up? WTH?? (which means Why the hoodie, right??)

the car has a snow-mowhawk

Those are fun--especially when it starts blowing in the face of the SUV that's tailgating you!

yeah, if we were going to drive at all today, I'd have pulled out the broom and gotten it all. I've always cleared off the top, but PA has a new law that makes it illegal to drive with snow on top of your vehicle - even trucks, which is awesome - and there's a big fine to make it stick.
