Cold

It has been below 30 degrees (F) all night. The full moon vanished into the darkening clouds long ago, and now, tiny bits of ice are falling. It is like a frozen mist. Not yet snowflakes, but no longer water. I wouldn't be surprised to see snow today.

I just ate some of my favorite export of Texas. Red Grapefruit. It is excellent this time of year, and, when sliced in half, very pretty to look at. All that rich color and texture. Makes me not miss watermelon at all.

Snow

You know that scene in the movie Holiday Inn, when they open the back of the stage wall, and there is the snow falling, and Bing Crsoby sings White Christmas, and everybody is happy? Well, it is crap! Snow is a pain in the ass. Sure, it is pretty and all, but I'd really rather not have to deal with it. I don't know how long I'm going to be stuck here (the worst time was four days) or if we will lose our electric power (the worst time was about seventy hours) but I will be happy when the snow melts. Take that, Bing! It is reported that it is even snowing on the floor of the Sacramento Valley. Hardly ever happens. It is reported that it is in the 70s in Florida today. You bastards! You have my sunshine!

Snow!

Feh!
