All of my pictures are on my cell phone which makes it a pain to get them off quickly or conveniently.

I have a tonne of pictures showing the snow.

Until I get this posted, I am permitted to show a picture that jackal_child took at her place. She lives about 1/2 a mile up the road from me.

You can see her picture on her space at deviantart.com

The picture can be made larger by clicking on it.

I’m not kidding when I say, “After April 15th in Washington. And about an inch and a half of snow.”

Whee

The Seahawks are in Cleveland.

Today I am a big, BIG Seahawks fan.

Um… go blue?

I have made the trip from home to capitol hill 5 days in the last 8.

This doesn’t include: 2 trips to seatac, 1 to pioneer square, 1 to whereeverthehellthewetspotis, 1 downtown trip for a movie and one way the hell out to South Seattle

Tired now!

Well, I looked out the front door and it was there. White stuff. And since I’m not in L.A. anymore, but in fact the Norman Rockwell hamlet of Snohomish; I can be assured of two simple facts.

1. It is not cocaine
2. It is snow

For those that didn’t know, I consider myself a Pennsylvanian. I spent 30 years combined in both states of Pennsylvania. 15 years from the age of 1 to 16 in the state of Eastern PA and 15 years from 16 to 31 in the state of Western PA. (Pennsylvania residents will understand this two state mentality. California residents should too)

I moved to San Diego during Thanksgiving 1998. The last snow out my front door that I saw was in fact January of 1998 (It was a warm winter). Now, I’ve seen snow since then visiting places like the mountains to the north of L.A., Minneapolis, but seeing it outside the door… that is different. That is more ‘real’ I guess.

I guess in a way it’s comforting… which is odd as I listen to the associated song…

I feel good.

(Ironically as I type this the song hits:
And it’s beginning,
    And it’s beginning to…,
        And it’s beginning to “Joanne which way to the stage?” snow!!!!

I likes my local peeps

So, tonight we needed to run into the city to deal with some paperwork with our local Body master for the OTO.

Translation, we went into the city to exchange paperwork and it turned into several hours of good red wine, chat, and hanging out with babalonyieh and regulus666. I have also discovered that once I get past the second glass of red wine, the next 6 glasses go much more easily. I discovered this also to the amusement of shimmeringjemmy. Well amusement and mild annoyance when my penchant for topic related stories became digressions that wouldn’t let her speak. So muchly bonding (that’s bonding not bondage) with our LB officers. (Also got to see all to briefly matertiamat) Inits in November are gonna be fuuuuunnnnnn 😀

I have to admit, that I really like regulus666 and babalonyieh. (I like matertiamat too, but didn’t get to hang out with her as much.) But the people I did spend the night chatting with… I like them more and more the more time I spend with them.

As you can probably tell from the writing style… still a touch of alcohol in the system. (See we started with this killer sweet desert wine)… I’d say I’m about 70+% to sober now. 🙂 I had a bottle of water on the ride home along with a muffin. (Blueberry I think). Had two pieces of bread once I got home. We’ll see how miserable I feel in the morning 🙂

With luck next week we’ll get to hang with jonah777 and family.

A good night chatting about all things and all topics tonight. I like it 🙂
