You know what's kind of tough? Traffic circles in snowy/icy conditions.... Weeeeee! No wonder the Northeast gets all freaked out every time it snows. Every intersection over there is a traffic circle. Or a roundabout. Or whatever the local lingo is.

But anyways, clearly winter is back. And the weathermen have gone back to sucking. I want that job. They can't possibly be accurate more than like 25% of the time. And I know the weather is out of their control. But lots of things are out of my control at my job too. And if I was only accurate 25% of the time, I'd be fired. Take the past few days for example. Friday, we had winter storm watches and snow advisories and there was going to be 6-8 inches. We got maybe 3. But then today, it wasn't supposed to snow till noon and even then only a half inch, but there were white-out conditions during morning rush hour and we got about 2 inches of snow in like 90 minutes and they closed the freeway and a semi carrying a load of manure jack-knifed and dumped its load. I bet the grass in that median is nice and green come spring.

In other news, did you know that there are still people who don't have answering machines or voice mail? And I need to get a hold of one of these people and it's pissing me off.

And did you know that the Pistons are 33-5? I don't care about basketball, but this seems very good to me. There's too much scoring, and only the last 5 minutes matter. But I have come up with a plan to make basketball more interesting. Since only the last 5 minutes matter, I think the NBA should switch to a "best of" type thing. Teams would play like seven 5 minute games, and it would be best of 7 wins. Then it would be the last 5 minutes all the time. And all the time would matter. I think this would be much more exciting.

Let's see. What else? I've been a bad blogger lately...... I have to go there and back to Chicago on Thursday and that makes for long long days and it sucks...... I had to drive 40 miles to see Brokeback Mountain. Because that's just way way too liberal for most of SW Michigan. But it was worth it....... I made homemade chicken noodle soup this past weekend. But you can't just make a little. So I have like 3 gallons. I like it, but I'm not sure I like it 3 gallons worth........ I've been trying to drink more water because supposedly you should. But really, all I do now is pee like once an hour. So I'm not sure of the point........ The Felpaush doesn't carry Edy's Nestle Toll House Cookie Ice Cream and I really really really want it.......... Um, and that's about it. Pretty low key. Have a lovely evening.
