So I’m still in the area…never went on the hike.
Why?
Two things.
1) At work I got into a situation with a patient, a violent young man with known behavior issues. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and got my shoulder bent backwards. Far back…enough where it snapped out of joint and needs to be immobilized for a couple weeks. There is a small fracture too.
2) Snowstorm. We got hit yesterday- and my group new of this storm for several days. It’s never EVER a smart thing to go on that hike with an impending blizzard on the horizon. So they didn’t go either.
So here I am, at home…slightly miserable and definitely pouting. I can’t ride my snowmobile. I can drive, but it’s not easy. I feel trapped and closed in. Like a caged animal LOL…I’ll get over it.
I’ve been cooking up a storm. And reading- my books- I think I’ve read 6 of them now. These books are hard copies I owned before I got the Kindle for Christmas. I’m fiddling with that as I type (sort of)…downloaded 4 novels in less than 4 minutes. THAT’s cool.

Since work is a bit boring today, I’ve had a few things to say at ARS.

It’s work tomorrow…yes…Friday I’m working a double shift, and Saturday too…cause I have Sunday off. Why? So I can leave verrrry early Sunday am for some real fun.
It’s time to hike the Presidential Traverse again. In the winter.
RIGHT HERE.
From the last winter hike I did:

Beautiful eh??
We should be back sometime next week- I figure Thursday or Friday. Until then: BE GOOD!!

FOX News’ Sexpert thinks she knows IT all.
Hmm.
My responses to her advice:
1) Beeah.
2) DON’T come within a thousand feet of me with these. I will kill you.
3) MY hands do the walking, not yours. You’ll always like what you feel. Me? I have to like what I feel first. Although I do melt from a really good massage.
4) I don’t dress for anything. It’s jeans, tee shirts and sneakers. No matter the occasion.
5) Pink Floyd. Hours and hours of Pink Floyd music.
This article at FOX is the corniest pile of crap I have read in a long time. THANK GAWD I like being single and can do without all this stupid phony drama from men.

Yesterday I spent a good portion of my day doing errands…when I got home in the later afternoon I found an AVON catalog on my door…I don’t usually purchase their products, although I do like one of the deodorants and buy them in bulk…anyway I did go through the brochure to see what the latest wonder products they are trying to sell to women. As always, AVON didn’t let me down.

Hehe!! Michael found this list, which is exhaustive but oh so damn accurate.
Are You A Liberal?
# You are against the War on Terror, but are only too happy to make millions of dollars by making movies about it.
# You preach about the evils of Capitalism from the comfort of your weekend hillside estate.
# You cry about the evils of “profiteering corporations”, but still demand your weekly paycheck.
# You believe “rich people” are evil, but are willing to over-look the fact that Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, George Soros, Michael Moore, and Al Franken are “rich”, as well.
# You scream and shout when innocent civilians are accidentally caught in the crossfire, but remain silent when terrorists kill them on purpose.
# You believe that civilians caught in the crossfire of terrorists attacking American troops died because of America and not because of the actions of the terrorists that actually killed them.
# You believe O.J. Simpson is actually looking for the “real killers”.
# You claim a higher moral ground in opposing the death penalty but see abortion as an expression of Women’s Rights as guaranteed in the Constitution.
# You believe America deserved 9/11.
# You believe American troops are “war criminals”, but a thug who killed somebody in cold blood is just a “victim of society”.
Go read the other 243 traits liberals have. And have a beer on me while your laughing!

Weather up my way is never consistent. Dammit.
Even warmer air will move in during the next 2 days…including Primary Day tomorrow. Don’t forget to vote!
Expect partly to mostly cloudy skies tonight along with areas of dense fog and spot drizzle.
On Primary Tuesday, we’ll start with lots of low clouds and even areas of drizzle. The airmass, however, is warm enough that we’ll likely see temperatures climb into the 40s in most of the state by late morning and afternoon, and with any breaks of sunshine during the afternoon we could see temperatures into the low to mid 50s in southern portions of the state (that’s saying something considering the hefty snowpack!)
So what does this mean?
ALL THE FREAKIN SNOW IS MELTING!!!


I went roller blading today…the roads were BAREASS, no snow, no ice. A little wet here and there…We had a heat wave. The January Thaw is upon us and I don’t like it already. Good news though- they’re predicting more snow for the coming weekend.
