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.

Oh, shit man. Not ice vampires.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If I were less concerned about people looking at my screen, I would find that picture of Vampire Tom Hiddleston eating a blood popsicle for you people.

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

Are ice vampires better or worse than ice weasels?

Because at night the ice weasels come.

I'd also like to point out that it's currently 62 degrees here, and will apparently be back up to 70 by Sunday.
