Okay, those of y’all that live places where there is an actual winter, please help me understand the difference between these two statements (both from Accuweather, and the forecast for the next two nights where we will be)
Breezy and very cold
Low 14° F
and
Clear and bitterly cold
Low 12° F
Okay, so when the wind stops, is that when it gets bitter?
Oh, yeah, freakin’ BRRRRRRR
I went home for lunch today (which is a big deal as the weather is atrocious right now. Remember how I talk about how it’s often 70 degrees here? And was yesterday? Today it’s 40 and windy and rainy. But I digress)
I went home for lunch, and my boys were watching Spiderman. After I made a sandwich I sat with them for a minute. (Anyone who has not seen Spiderman and who doesn’t want a minor spoiler, go away now) There’s a scene where Willem Defoe’s character is arguing with himself (and when Norman realizes he’s actually the Green Goblin). Okay so this is a plot development trick and a kinda cheap one at that – having the dude argue with the mirror and use two different voices, real original.
What’s important is that he was clearly drinking Maker’s Mark, which is my whiskey of choice.
And, I’ve been known to talk to myself in the mirror at times, too…
No, I’m not talking about that (although it was), but we went to see the movie starring Jenn’s secret love child and it was just as good as the first time. And this time I got to see parts that I missed while making bathroom and/or popcorn runs with the kids last time.
And I might be having a little crush on an animated Holly Hunter. Maybe.
