the BRUTAL, UGLY truth of my FABULOUS, BEAUTIFUL life.

4.50am, a dark room. a cold room. alarm1-blaring most-unwelcome. approx5am, dark room a little less opaque-like. still cold, can hear the wind whipping about outside. ooo, maybe there's snow! alarm2-blaring more-than-most-unwelcome.

at some point [we'll say quarter-to-6ish] i find the innerstrength to get out of bed. walk to the bathroom and realise that my pyjama-bottoms had completed removed themselves during the night. i involuntarily became one of those people... the ones that sleep wearing only an elongated t-shirt.

get dressed, grab an extra cd or two to add to the at-work collection compiled in the passenger's seat of my automobile. [welcome to the playlist, mr.'s devo and beat happening.] taking the typical "scenic route" to work in order for car to get somewhat heated-through. pass the st. peter highschool and it's digital bulletin board: GOOD MORNING! -good morning to you too, do you happen to know the time and temperature?- 5:56, -11. -ah yes. -11! that would explain my testicles freezing off upon leaving the house.-

not that -11 is that cold. but vis-a-vis this disgustingly mild winter, it is damn cold. currently [at 3pm] it's -3 with a -18 windchill. [FANTASTIC!] and i'm reminiscing about those winters in elementary/middle school. when the governor would call off school for the entire state because it was too cold. and little children everywhere braved the outside on their day off in order to throw the warmer-than-lukewarm contents of a glass in the air and watch it freeze mid-flight. how we loved beakman's world and all its delightful tricks.

but without snow this negative-degree for a high temp is but a red herring. snow is scheduled for wednesday and then saturday-monday, sunday being the day when snow is nearly a certainty.

3 days... must start cleaning.
