Life's mysteries

I feel like this at times...well I feel like this A LOT! There are things I guess I will never understand:

1. NHL referee Don Koharski's stupid calls
2. How people who are obviously meant for each other can't seem to get it right
3. Algebra
4. Why the moon follows me at night when I'm driving (Okay, I know it doesn't actually follow me, but you get what I'm saying!)
5. Hippies
6. How cats can be cold with all that fur and always seem to find a sunbeam to keep warm.
7. Prejudice
8. Drunk text messaging (Why wait until you're drunk to be honest, we know alcohol is a TRUTH serum. cb I'm talking about you!)

It's Saturday and I'm bored. When I'm bored I think of strange things. Speaking of strange things, I've always been a fan of commercials. Mom said that as a toddler, I'd be running around the house playing and as soon as a commercial came on, I'd stop dead in my tracks to watch it. Some things never change. Watch this:

...on my frozen mind

I'm COLD! 

Yes, even this Yankee is cold deep in the frozen heart of Texas. The ice storm is late getting here, meanwhile the always-amazing Fox 4 has constant coverage of this storm. Must be a slow news day. Must watch the Bruins/Caps game to keep me entertained.

Darden Smith...ever hear of him? This guy is out of Austin, one of my favorite places in the world. I heard this song years ago, found it again and fell in love with it all over again. Someone hurry up and buy me this.

Blame Canada!

Baby it's cold outside.

Even for Texas it's cold. My favorite TV news station (Fox 4) is predicting an ice storm.

What is it with Texas? It can't just rain, it either rains 7 inches all at once in five minutes, or it comes in the form of frozen hydrogen dioxide, thus allowing me to go to work on ice skates.

On top of this ridiculi weather (summer one day, Iceland the next) I'm suffering from allergies to mountain cedar pollen. Thank YOU Chuck Norris!

I love Chuck Norris. He's the ultimate American. I'd vote for him. I bet he plays great hockey too. Love all those Chuck Norris sayings out there, such as:

1. When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.
2. Once a cobra bit Chuck Norris' leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.

and probably my favorite:

     3.  Superman owns a pair of Chuck Norris pajamas.

Ice, Ice Baby

Only in Fort Worth would you have an ice storm and everything ices over EXCEPT the roads!

This is my sycamore tree in front of La casa de locos. I just had to get a shot of this before it got too dark.

I'm not complaining, (okay, maybe I am a little. Another day off of work would have been nice) it's just weird.

I like it this cold...must be the yankee in me. The summers here are long and hot enough, I can deal with some cold weather.
