Sunday, colder then the ice age, day thread
« on: January 20, 2008, 10:28:41 AM »
So, I think we've established it is not only cold, but it is friggin' cold. We woke up to about 0 degrees with 20 below windchills here. So, we will be spending our day indoors. We did take the kids swimming last night. I got some great action shots:

Hey, nobody said it had to be spent on anything altruistic. Just how you'd blow the last 20 burning a hole in the pocket. I haven't decided yet...I'm indecisive like that.  :tongue:

Cold day here...we are heading to the mall, etc to kill the afternoon. 

TOTD:  I'd probably order pizza, so I wouldn't have to cook!

Either that or stuff to make buffalo wings.  Game starts at 3.

Of course, that's what I WOULD HAVE BEEN DOING, had I not gotten a call from my boss this morning at 5:30.

Glad they had so much fun in the pool :cheersmate:

A twenty, hmm... rent some movies? 

I am too...


and you know what, I think that's what I'd do with it too. Start a fire in the fireplace, get a warm drink, and pop in a movie or two or three.  :cheersmate:

Cheery is a flavor?  What about just plain contented?

I can tell by looking it's cold outside, no need for me to go out there.

Later I do have to go to the grocery store.  I went yesterday and I forgot to buy mozzarella for the baked ziti I'm making later.

Yesterday my brother that I haven't seen in like 9 months (and probably 3 years before that) came over with his daughter (who I haven't seen since she was 2, and she's 9 now).  That was nice.

TOTD:  Hum, $20.  If all needs are taken care of....I'd buy a book at Barnes & Noble probably.  Or go drinking with friends.

I went to the gun show this morning.

I signed a petition to get Sheriff Joe back on the ballot this year. I know Sonnabend probably got the chills in Australia as I did that.

Now all I'm doing is cleaning my apartment and watching football.

I have a leftover Pillsbury holiday cake mix that is baking in the oven as I type.

TOTD: I would probably rent movies or order a Sardella's pizza.

TOTD: What would I do with that $20?  I guess some Sam Adams, since it's not enough to buy Bailey's.   :lmao:
