Slip, slidin' around

My company cancelled the trip I had to take because of the "blizzard", but I just had to post this anyway...we are safe and warm, if not totally inundated by the snow...but Rufuz loves it...;)

Slip, slidin’ around…


 


Snow and ice on the way here bound,


Gonna be tonight slip, slidin’ around,


Have to drive two hundred miles,


In a company car all the while…


 


Enjoy to be working in the snow,


The wind is predicted to be a big blow,


White out conditions are expected,


Hope if I do die again, I can be resurrected…


 


Snow, sleet and freezing rain,


The snow will look like freshly fallen cocaine,


The rain will look like to me champagne,


I look forward to my drive; it should be for me way to enjoyably insane…

I don't care much about the weather. I like having seasons. But I had to quit snorting the snow in the 80s.

Enjoyably insane - I like that.

But what the heck kind of state is New Jersey - to cancel work just because of a blizzard?! You east coat folks would never make it out here in the hardy Midwest.

Why, I remember when I had to walk to school - 10 miles - in the worst blizzard ever ...

I think this is a perfect excuse for sleeping the weekend away. Stay cozy grab a good book, something warm to drink...It is unseasonably warm here this week. It has been in the 60's most days..not bad for January and 5000+ ft. elev. The weather just keeps getting crazier and crazier. I am glad you are staying home...just a whole lot safer...plus Rufuz probably likes Daddy's company.
Take care,
Sherry

If you don't like the blizzard
And sliding around on yer gizzards *grins*

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya

The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
