Have some laughs with Eddie Izzard. Need some laughs because all those plans I mentioned yesterday have gone horribly wrong. One snowstorm throws everything into a meat grinder. So, I spent today reading The Crimson League and I’m going to work on a few future writing ideas before bed.
Greg’s visit has been delayed or cancelled depending on an event. This falls into the theory that some all-powerful being hates it when we make plans. Greg and I have yet to make a plan that goes smoothly if it happens at all. Last time it almost went smoothly until he slept through his subway stop and I wandered away from where we were supposed to meet. This time was snow and bastards.
What will I do now? Well, I’m going to start writing the next Legends of Windemere book and see what happens. Seems I’ll have tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday to get some work done. That means I can feasibly get 2 chapters written before next week when the toddler is home. No idea what’s going on that week, but I do know that we’re getting snow on Monday . . . I despise that groundhog.
I suggest we go groundhog hunting. You bring the beer, I’ll bring the chainsaw.

Being flexible is part of life. Most plans don’t go according to plan.
We are predicted to get 8-10″ more tomorrow. Not sure where we can keep piling it. I eke trying to send it your way. Nice to know it finally got there. We had our snowiest ever January and we are looking like it might be the snowiest winter ever. I’m not a fan.

We got 5-8 this time and getting more tomorrow night. It’s a mess and the school districts are reacting to every warning this time. So, the toddler might be home again on Wednesday.

Have to prefer squirrels over groundhogs… 🙂

The groundhog saw his shadow and suddenly we started to have winter weather. I know, I know, the rest of the country is suffering under sheets of ice, but in Southern California we are in a major drought, having record high temperatures, and had severe fire warnings. Good times for winter. I don’t wish any more cold and nasty weather on you, but I am thoroughly enjoying the clouds, rain, and cooler temps we’ve been having this week so far.

In that case, do you mind if we send you our ice and snow? We can make a weather exchange program. 😀

That sounds perfect. Let’s make that happen!

Might have to use eBay.

Hmm… Would we have to do it as an auction, or could we do a “Buy it Now” swap?

Buy it Now swap sounds best. Otherwise, it might not be an even exchange. Imagine if all of our snow goes to California, but most of your warm weather goes to Maine. Totally unfair.

Good point.
I have a suspicion that the powers at be over at eBay may not let our little exchange take place though. Something about actual ownership, blah blah blah.
