It’s snowing. Like really snowing. It started at around 6:00 last night, while Barbara and I were enjoying yet another wonderful dinner at Angelina’s, our favorite Woodbury bistro. It’s the one place in Woodbury that rivals Hay J’s, our fave spot back out in Liberty Lake and Spokane. It snowed most of the night and it’s not supposed to end until 6:00 or so this evening.
Just a quick blog today, because my plate is pretty full of “must do” stuff before I leave for Kansas City tomorrow. I’m looking forward to getting down there to see Alexa Jacobsen, CJ Eick, and Bob Rennison. In addition, I’ll get to see the Kansas City Mavericks play two hockey games! In the meantime, I have bills to pay, a haircut to get, and other errands to run. It will also be the first time I’ve been out of the house for more than 15 seconds since Monday. It’s been a little nippy here.
Last week’s blog installment was all about random thoughts, because that’s what I do when there’s no big news or central theme on any given week. When I woke up this morning my first thought was “Man it’s early” and my second thought was “Well, there’s two boyz snuggling with me so maybe another hour’s sleep would be OK.” Then my third thought was “It’s Thursday. What am I going to write about?” Finally, my fourth thought just popped into my head for no reason. It was, “I’m going to write about unforgettable moments in my life.” So there.
To be perfectly honest, I expected my spellchecker to flag the word “Randomness” in today’s title. I wasn’t exactly 100% sure it was a real word, but apparently it is. The reason for its use in the title of today’s installment is probably clear to most of you who are even semi-regular readers of this nonsense. Sometimes I just don’t have a major theme, and since I get paid by the word it’s important to make sure I write anyway. Wait, you didn’t know I got paid by the word? Why do you think these things ramble on forever? Of course, I pay myself and I do it in “credits” instead of cash, but I’m indeed a fully paid professional blogger. To this point in my 13+ years of blog writing I have accumulated roughly 2.75 million credits. When I get to 10 million I’ll be able to get a free pack of gum.
