Winter has about knocked me dead. Now here it is,...the tulips are pokin' a turtle head in central Kentucky,..alla sudden, we got 2 damn feet of snow on the way.
I'm too fuggin' old fer this bullshit. I'm liable ta take hostages and demand a helicopter to grassy key enny damn minnit.
Now,...Steelhead is gonna jump in and tell me that the only reason it bothers me is because I'm a borin' fugger. I won't even argue the point. I don't givva chit. I may be borin',...I dunno,...I don't care,..but this damn North Pole chit has done drove me crazy.
I don't know how you fuggin' yankees get by,....I really don't.

I was afraid it was gonna get down here. Fer the past 2 weeks I been watchin' the news,...and they always got somebody from Boston with his head wrapped up in a bathroom rug turban,...talkin' about how he's fixin' to go shovel snow off the roof with his Crispus Attucks autograph snow shovel so the damn thing don't cave in own him.
Fuggit,......I'd rather be a street person in Marathon Florida than have to get up every morning in Boston and shovel the roof of my mansion to keep it from pilin' in own toppa me.
Does that make me crazy?
I don't think so.

Quit whinin, you'll live. The snow is azz deep to a tall giraffe here and has been for weeks. I had to clear my driveway 3 times today cuz the damned hurricane force winds kept drifting it in. It never got above zero all day and with the wind chill it was about -30.

I'm all for going to the Keys. Just don't get me shot by Barney Fife when we head past Mayberry.

I don't have to shovel the damn snow off the roof. I got a roof rake, (google it if you don't know what they are). Getting all that crap off the roof also helps prevent ice dams (another one to google). Tomorrow I'm gonna spend at least half my day on snowshoes reading gas and electric meters. It's my semi-retirement gig and my route tomorrow is almost all outdoor meters which means walking around behind and alongside homes and buildings where there's usually no cleared path and that stuff is pretty deep. Snowshoes are priceless for navigating this mess. And it's currently about zero degrees here on the south shore of Lake Ontario but the damn wind is givin us about a minus 15 to 20 degree wind chill factor. High tomorrow about 10. This is the kind of winter that; when spring finally arrives, you'll think you died and went to heaven. Does that make me crazy?... Sort of... Right now I'm just counting the days until spring and spending more time than usual in the reloading room.
