Snow

Well, we did get snow. I thought we'd get about 3 inches.  We got a tad bit more, for fell short of the 4 inches forecasters were predicting.  Temp wise we are sitting right at the freezing point, with today's high to be in the upper 40s (F).  Tomorrow our high will not get as high, rising only into the mid 30s (F).  On the bright side, we a little over 3 weeks until Spring officially arrives.  Believe me when I tell you that people here in Central PA are ready and waiting.  

Things were very slow yesterday in the world of home improvement retail.  One of our aisle associates was wondering why, so I told him this is what it's always like in mid-February.  There may have been 5 customers in the store when I left at 6 PM.  When I was a part-time cashier, over 17 years ago, I was lucky if I was scheduled 4 hours a week.  

So, what did I do to pass the time?  Well, I printed off Chapter 6, called B Flat, and spent some time editing and rewriting.  Three new characters are introduced in this chapter: Tsung Park, Violet Murgatroyd, and Netty LaRoux.  She's a cook.  I find her name amusing since there are so many people who have no idea what a roux is.

And, as I said, we did get snow.  Here are some pics.  It sure does look pretty, doesn't it?

And yesterday morning the US Men's hockey team won.  That was great.  Only one thing put a damper on the victory and that was the drunken idiot Kash Patel dancing around with the team, shouting "I won, I won," while on the phone with the Orange Anus.  I don't know about you, but I'd rather a the Director of the FBI demonstrate just a smidgen of dignity rather than chug beer like some over-the-hill frat boy.  Now, I'm not on Zitter, or Twitter, or what ever Musk's social media platform is called, but from what other people are saying, MAGA cultists are not happy with Patel's jig-jigging around.  These people actually thought that the Orange Anus was going to drain the swamp.  Now, they're beginning to realize he is the swamp.

And the State of the Union speech is on Tuesday evening.  For some odd reason I thought it was on last night.  Not that I have any intention of watching it.  Those who do should prepare themselves to hear many lies, not doubt the latest being that Orangie single handedly stopped a drug war in Mexico.
