cornerofmadnessDon't get me wrong, I don't care what people wear or try to police it. On the other hand I did my time working in an ER and I don't get this trend of men wearing basketball shorts and short sleeves, no coat, in the dead of winter. It was 19 today and as I'm trying to park at Kroger two men, a few minutes apart come out dressed like this and I used to see this in teens but one guy was 30-40 and the other 50+ For that matter last week I told my students I guess I don't have to tell you no flipflops/slippers in our lab (it's a safety issue) since it's so cold but thursday I had to say okay I guess I DO have to say it because what did I see walking down the hall but a girl in backless flipflop styles slippers. I'm like are you actually serious? You're going to bust your skull open when you fall on the ice but okay you do you
I feel like a crotchety old woman.
Oh wait....
I did get to Jackson. I got to Tractor Supply, to Kroger, to the library and to the coffee shop (had to embed myself in an ice floe for that). Speaking of which I did decide I can't safely do the chocolate walk next Thursday. There's too much ice to do it in the dark. I will die. And I'd have been alone in the cold. two friends didn't want to and I would rather never go anywhere with L again and TH...he couldn't manage this walk. Ah well. I didn't go last year either for pretty much the same reason. This leg, the gift that keeps on giving.
I did start a vampire story I've been wanting to write but I need to keep moving because the deadline (I found yesterday) is in 2 weeks.
