It's 22 degrees outside, and the wind's gusting up to 40 miles per hour. We discussed my growing aversion to the cold here before (but I can't find the post to link to it, so perhaps we should also discuss my increasingly unreliable memory), but this winter seems to be testing me more than any before it. I started the year in Minneapolis in single digit (and below-zero) temps. It hasn't been all that much better back home in the 'South'. And don't get me started on seasonal affective disorder. That shit might be real, if my current mood is any indicator.
It gets better, though. Sunday, I fly to Orlando for a week of work. Sure, nearly all of it will be spent indoors at a conference, but I'll be able to walk outside in shirtsleeves, bask in the warmth of the sun, and dream of light-filled days to come.
We are supposed to get another 8-14 inches of snow Sunday night into Monday. Win or lose Boston will be a clusterfuck of fun for the college kids.
ReplyDeleteIf we get the full 14 that would be 4 feet in a ten day window. Yeah, snow!
Thanks for the warning. I am supposed to fly from Newark to Dallas Monday morning, then from Dallas to Boston Tues night. Should all go swimmingly.
ReplyDeletewhat's the tribe/jmu line?
ReplyDeleteHot Prudential Center action for me and the 7 y/o today. Seton Hall-Xavier. Pirates need this one. Have been very inconsistent this year.
ReplyDeleteSo, this happened at the Jack White/Run the Jewels show last night.

It gets even more ridiculous at 3:30.
Tribe -3, Rob.
ReplyDeleteFlorida is -6.5 at home vs Arkansas. Take the Hogs.
Gasparilla this weekend in Tampa. If you've never heard of Gasparilla just trust me when I tell you it is peak Tampa.
ReplyDeletetribe handled jmu easily at home, but the dukes are only a game back of the league lead. we're better, but roadies are roadies. still like the tribe.
ReplyDeleteI just watched the clip Z posted. Whoa. That. Was. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteIt's just such a random pairing. And where does a forty-some-odd-year-old guy get pants like that? How? Why? And why Excursions? So many questions.
ReplyDeleteFirst thing my wife noticed was the pants. Bad. The Jordans were sweet though.
ReplyDeleteA buddy of mine today was supposed to receive pics and reviews of golf courses from his buddy today for an upcoming golf trip. He instead received a full frontal nude shot of the guy's wife. Whoops.
ReplyDeletei am a big fan of the snow and the cold, but it's starting to get on my nerves too. i've been out in the weather all week, with the dog and snowboarding with the kids and my knees feel like crap, i think the cold got inside them and won't come out (but luckily there's alcohol, the cause of-- and solution to-- all of life's problems).
ReplyDeleteOh...and the pic went to the other 6 guys going on the trip also.
ReplyDeleteGreat hole!
Look at that topography!
Which hole was it?
ReplyDeletewhat's the etiquette on that, danimal? do you tell the guy? do you stay quiet and just pretend it didn't happen? do you send it to clarence?
ReplyDeleteEtiquette is non existent with this group. My buddy who has a talent for making t-shirts is planning on picking the guy up for said trip, wiith he and the others donning the the new fashion piece.
ReplyDeleteI am proud (disappointed) that my buddy is not forwarding to his other besties.
ReplyDeleteHopefully his wife isn't home when you all show up in naked wifey shirts.
ReplyDeleteI turned away from this UNC Louisville game and now it's interesting.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the game on my phone while getting tattooed. The future is pretty great.
ReplyDeleteUNC is getting tattooed too.
ReplyDeleteThere is the possibility he was sent the nude wifey pick on purpose - perhaps this was a test as to the guy's openness to some group action.
ReplyDeleteWife and three of her friends went to the local winery this afternoon for 4 hours. Apparently that entailed LOTS of wine. They are now in my kitchen yapping all at once at about 80 decibels. Not good times for this guy.
Maybe one of them will text you a full frontal nude shot.
ReplyDeleteText them a dong shot, Mayhugh. Let them know you can "jam" all four at once.
ReplyDeleteTR, I found your missing bag.

You got the wrong guy, Zman.
ReplyDelete#rawdog
I didn't see Duke winning before the game. I certainly didn't see them wining when they were down 9 in the second half. Impressive.
ReplyDeleteEpic choke by the Cavs. Up five w/ less than 3 mins left, they give up a three, a two, a three and another three on four consecutive possessions. They played not to lose and ate shit as a result.
ReplyDeleteat a mardi gras party that features a fire dancer and moonshine. not at the same time.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad.
ReplyDeleteRob's favorite turbocharged octopus tore his ACL today. That sucks.
ReplyDeleteRob (or Marls!) come meet kq and me at the Old Brogue. Firefall is here. Name a song without googling. No chance. Maybe Clarence.
ReplyDeletethat briante weber news truly sucks. he was 13 steals away from breaking the ncaa career record.
ReplyDeletein much better news, the tribe has sole possession of first place in the caa. hasn't happened this late in the season in forever. 97-98, maybe?
ReplyDeleteSo (and I apologize for any jinx this may cause) is a summit going down if the Tribe make the tourney? I'm in, if so as I doubt Florida makes it in this year.
ReplyDeletewe've had a standing deal on that, mark. wherever, whenever, there will be a summit if that happens.
ReplyDeletebut let's not get ahead of ourselves.
ReplyDeletesuper bowl open thread ready four hours early...just like shitty pregame shows
