Snowspam

A joke's a joke, but I've had enough. It was fun on Thursday and Friday, and I gritted my teeth (and the path) on Saturday but, after a brief sojourn (if sojourn is the word I want), back comes the white stuff and damn it, I want my routine. I'm a creature of habit and living under seige is not my habit. A swarm of bees, a fit of feathers from the sky... There is poetry in snow, I must admit. But this is getting silly. Besides, all the Caramel Bretons are gone and I'm running out of books with which to curl up. Time to crack out the Keep Calm and Carry On mug, one of two I received as gifts at Christmas, the other being It's a Beautiful Day. Any other mug lovers out there?

Yes, it's stopped being amusing.

I'm fed up with it, Frances. I know I have it cosy here and lots of people have it worse but it's so disruptive on so many levels. Are you keeping warm and well? I haven't seen you on WW in a while.

Muggles!!! That's me, but not in the Potterian sense. I buy a mug wherever I go. You've given me an idea. I'm going to take pic of all my mugs and post them on my blog. Though I don't have one from everywhere...hmmmmm. Oh well, it will be the "beginning inventory photog.

Let the mug shots begin, Gay!

There, Sarah; that's why you got more snow. That awful pun. Everyone knows the snow gods have no sense of humor.

Sarah Hilary said...

I fear you're right, KC. They just sent freezing fog...

K.C. Ball said...

Freezing Fogg?

Isn't that the brother of the main character in Around the World in Eighty Days?

KC, you crack me up!

You're too sharp, KC! Been sleeping in the knife drawer?
