Here we go again...

Another storm! Ice, snow, sleet, freezing rain, plague of frogs etc will be pelting down from Thursday night until Saturday afternoon. I've already told everyone at work that I'm not going out into that mess on Friday but I get the feeling they're humoring me. People, I mean it, I will never be so committed to my job that I'll risk my neck to reach it (and the buses won't be running anyway.) Right now I'm making an emergency grocery list: salsa, refried beans, hamburger, cheese... I'm having storm tacos before the lights go out. Some food for the cat, too, of course.

Speaking of, Polly's in hell. She makes my dishes rattle when she walks so I've cut her food down. Now she stands by her food bowl and stares off into the distance, with dignity, while she waits for me to do the right thing but I never do. Then she tries to Jedi mind-trick me but my will is too strong. It's annoying to be stared at for hours, though, so I'm going to reintroduce a squirt bottle into our relationship. Her life is so hard.

Anyway, I'm actually looking forward to the snowstorm. It'll be good to have a three day weekend but we'll see what Thursday's forecast says before I get too excited.
