Thursday

Once again, Happy Valentine's Day to everyone. Miss Connie, at work, treated us all to candy hearts; and one of the local orthodontist sent us frosted sugar cookies.

Going to the car this morning, I was greeted by a thin layer of ice topped with an extremely thin layer of snow. Of course, the car door was frozen shut as was the lock on the driver's side. I had to push open the driver's door from the backseat in order to get out this morning, but that wasn't too much inconvenience. It could have been MUCH worse.

I went out around lunch time and picked up Sean. He had gotten it into his head that he needed to pierce his lower lip with a paper clip. It is really an interesting look. He's has gotten a stud to put into, but I'm hoping that by the next time that we get together that he is back to his old self. Until then.....

Winter in Wisconsin

It's winter in Wisconsin
And the gentle breezes blow,
70 miles per hour
At 52 below!
Oh, how I love Wisconsin
When the snow's up to your butt.
You take a breath of winter air
And your nose is frozen shut.
Yes, the weather here is wonderful,
I guess I'll hang around.
I could never leave Wisconsin,
'Cause I'm frozen to the ground.

Stocking Purchase

Walking into a lingerie store, a customer says to the clerk, "I'd like to buy a pair of stockings for my wife."

The clerk asks, "Sheer?"

The man replies "No. She's in another store."
