Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hee. I never go anywhere! (Which reminds me, I need to get cracking on making a work trip happen....)

Ooh, trips to Paris and Stockholm to (vicariously) look forward to. Cool.

The roads are still surprisingly crappy around me. I'm just barely inside Philadelphia County, and they don't seem to believe in salt. And I live on a not unbusy road. At least they plow. So, nice tightly packed deck of slick snow. Still very pretty out, though.

We may go to Paris in April, when the DH has a trip to Geneva, but we haven't worked out all of our travel for the year, yet, and we've both been there. Somehow we've both missed Spain, so that's a possibility.

We are lucky to have a kid who loves to travel and is really good about it. She has her US states map and her world map marked with all the places she's been.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We have been informed that there is no Travel in the budget this year, so no work trips for me. Sadface.

This reminds me that I need to pick a vacation destination this year. And check to see if there are any shows I want to go to while I'm in NYC in two weeks.

I went 15 minutes out of my way yesterday to go to a different grocery store and buy gas, and I was all "glad I don't have to do that too often" about it.

I get antsy deciding to take a different route home from work. Outside of comfort zone! Ack!

I just love when they remove all the terrain variations that give you a toe hold for stability. I refer to it as Zamboni-ing the roads and sidewalks.

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

The electronic road signs around here are now telling people to try and avoid driving after sunset tonight. The news is predicting that many schools will be closed due to ice on the roads.

And now so will I.

No. The ice. Or maybe ice vampires.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, shit man. Not ice vampires.
