I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

My car is too small and short to worry about the snow hawk.

I also cleared snow off my hood and boot.
And for a moment I pictured ita brushing snow off her head and feet.

So I haven't been here for a while -- how's this onerous task thing work? Do you provide quiet moral support - like, "this is better because I know somewhere my buffistas are rooting for me" - or post-facto encouragement - "If I can just get this done, I get many virtual slaps on the back"? Or does ita just tell me to quit whining and do it already? What's the deal? Because I think I need to shovel my drive and I'm still not dressed yet.

I definitely didn't clear the snow off our van, but it pretty much hit the ground before we made it out of our dirt roads. I suppose it's possible that someone could be driving behind us on those roads, but it hasn't actually happened yet in the nearly three years we've been living here.
I do better with the station wagon since it's lower. Longer, but lower.

You get a pass then! (or, as the kids say YGAPT!)

Howdy! One of the kids in class the other day said "Bee-tee-double-u" - which, I'll point out, actually takes LONGER than saying "by the way".

I think it's more "I did this! Gimme my gold star!"
Or that could just be me.

The onerous task thing is more ... knowing everyone else is doing it at the same time? And saying you're going to do it, I guess, which makes it a little more concrete.
