more snow

State Motto: Colorado: If You Don't Ski, Don't Bother
Music: Cafe' Del Mar - Music for a Found Harmonium

Been watching Napoleon Dynamite a lot. I need to buy it when I have some money. And new sheets, a new hands-free thing for my cell phone, and I think some baking soda for my fridge 'cause it's smelly, oddly enough.

We got a buttload of snow last night, at least three inches (that's a lot when you haven't really gotten any snow at all this season), and by almost 6am when I was on my way to work this morning, they STILL had not plowed them. Apparently, Spearfish doesn't believe in getting ahead of the snow...they wait 'til it stops completely before they start plowing it. How frustrating. And it was pure ice underneath because yesterday we got a chinook wind that warmed everything up and melted most of the snow we had, leaving the roads wet, and then they froze. So that was fun.

I spilled Windex all over myself at work yesterday. Today I put together patio furniture all day long. Using only an allen wrench and some weird fakey wrench, I put together 12 chairs, a table, a bar, and a footrest or two. Now that's talent.

Jill stopped by to say "hi" today while her boyfriend was helping his friend move from the apartment that's across the parking lot from mine, so that was fun. We haven't seen each other in a while, but we have Philosophy together, so every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday we shall see each other at 11am sharp. Yay! Still sad she's moving to North Dakota next year. Of all places.

Anywho, since Jill had me get out my guitar so she could see it and try to play it, I think I'll practice up on it. I realized while showing her my few skills that I'd forgotten where things go, so I'm gonna just start from the beginning and do a quick run through of the notes 'n stuff. But after this song.

Putting together pre-fab furniture is the bomb! I love doing that stuff. I even thought it might be a good side business. You know, going to people's houses and building their stuff so they don't have to get pissed off at the stupid directions. Might just work....

K-Mart actually has some decent pre-fab stuff, surprisingly. In fact, Audra wants to buy a table there.

Hell, we just bought an area rug and it looks great. Well, enjoy the icey snow...Hee Hee Hee.
