Our snowfall was rather overdone last night. We are now dealing with a lot of snow. Like 11" of snow that nobody wanted and nobody wants to deal with. Including, of course, our plow guy. That jerk has outdone himself. He came at around 4:30 this morning and did the driveway, but it was still snowing...

One of the things that drives me the absolute craziest about the hate bloggers is their inability to read.

I hate to say this but Canada, could you keep your freaking weather on your side of the border? I mean really, what were you thinking sha...

It was the worst of times. It was not the best of times. It sucked. I cried. A lot. Yesterday the Girl begged to go to Boyfriend's house for a while.
