thar she blows

The wind was fierce yesterday. I was walking to my jeep with face fully exposed to the blistering cold, so that by the time the journey through the parking lot ended, I had a face that was completely red, frozen hair, and as a bonus I slipped and fell on the way there (with a messenger bag weighing a ton, an umbrella, and a travel mug to gather back up after i fell...) The ride home was over an hour (usually fifteen minutes), complete with fire engines trying to get through, cars swerving, and cars stuck on the side of the road. The roads were more ice than pavement. But this morning the sky is clear and the sun shining. Amazing. Just amazing. Nature is amazing. So today I'm equipped with my morning java (the second to last pot of gloria jeans....today or tomorrow i will traverse to the local coffee haven and purchase more beans to feed my habit), and a rather sunny disposition. I can't stand that I still feel tired though. Residual tired after you've been awake for an hour sucks. For me, it usually means I'm getting sick - not a good sign. Welp, time to fill the travel mug and be on my merry way. I may be in Pittsburgh for a visit on Friday. Oh what this weekend shall bring!
