So Long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good night....


The Nebraska Supreme Court has ruled you "cruel and unusual punishment". But don't worry, we're still tight. I believe Te-has is the only state in which you still reside. Bust.
So long Sparky. Here's to hoping they don't chop you up for firewood...

Is it sad that...

...my day peaked at 8:45 this morning?

Allow me to elaborate. I live on a street that has a nice curve to it. It was foggy/drizzle-y last night. Now, you may think that the previous 2 sentences do not belong together. But....drizzle-y weather and temps around the freezing point make for a very slick side street. This situation gets even better when said side street is curvy. I spent about 15 minutes this morning watching boneheads go too fast down my street. I watched as the tires locked up on sedans, coupes and trucks. I watched as car after car slid into the curb, into my neighbors yards, knocked down trash cans, demolished mailboxes and almost hit one another. It was amazing. I laughed until my face hurt, until my stomach ached, and until I ran out of coffee and decided it was time to get ready for school. It was the best morning I've had in awhile.

Its a little foggy and drizzle-y again tonight, and temps are about the same as yesterday. You better believe that when my alarm goes off tomorrow morning my ass will be parked in front of my bay window. I will be in my bathrobe...coffee in hand; hoping and praying to see a similar show.

Hoping my mailbox is lucky enough to be missed again tomorrow,
