Got snow today! Not bad here on the valley floor, but work is over the Sylvan Hill, which is pretty bad, so I called off. Good thing, too, as another terp who did NOT call off and tried to go in to the relay center had an unfortunate meeting with the median on said hill and got stuck.... She's probably still waiting for a tow truck.
So we decided that a day like today called for homemade veggie-barley soup in the crock-pot and since we live next door to New Seasons (a rather pricey hippy-organic-local food store that I LOVE), we headed on over.
After slapping chains on Rex's wheels, that is...

Ok.. I'm kidding about the chains..
Once in the store, The Ruling Reddcub snapped this picture without me knowing.. The camera was on a strap around his neck, and we were joking around...

It strikes me for several reasons: the snow in my beard is really fun (clicky and then clickey again for full size.. it's there), and I can see myself as I look at the guy who is responsible for that gleam in my eyes...

Date: 2008-12-14 08:05 pm (UTC)He communicated this by allowing his handrims get so cold, that had we run into some sort of wheelchair licking pervert, it would have been like that scene in "A Christmas Story" except instead of a precocious, yet stupendously gullible blond kid with his tongue stuck to a really cold flag pole, it would be a wheelchair licking pervert of as yet unknown age or hair color with his tongue stuck to the hand rim of my wheelchair; which I bet would look really, really weird.
As I got into writing that sentence, I decided to see just how long I could make it.
That's pretty long.
The semi colon at the end may be a cheat.... The independant clause after it may of too dissimilar topic, but whatever.
