Holy Christ! Where do you live? In the foothills?
I am living the dream in Beautiful Central Oregon.

Got another foot since this pic, so today is dig-out day.

Tri-Met = biggest tax rip-off in the history of Portland.
I go to Germany to report to the parent company.
Ha! Don't be mean, the locals love it.


Euphemism for...?
Just got back from the local Costco (less than a mile from my house). A GREAT day to shop there. No line at the gas pumps or the cash register. Great parking. Even better, no fat ass, oblivious, self absorbed soccer moms blocking the aisles talking on their cell phones or to another fast assed, oblivious, self absorbed soccer mom all the while grazing on free snacks and giving me the stink eye when I say "excuse me". I wish it would snow every time I needed a Costco run.....
Well back in the day they used to do it in vehicles like this:

Now, they use vehicles like this:

Bend has 4 feet of snow and the buses are running on schedule.
Dude, I'm loving that orange car with the whitewalls. Is that a Buick?
It's a Mercury. 1949 I believe....Dude, I'm loving that orange car with the whitewalls. Is that a Buick?
how close are your wife and neighbor?My neighbor cleared my sidewalk, and another did the pathway from our front step to the sidewalk.
Score!
how close are your wife and neighbor?
couldn't resist!
We're supposed to clear the snow off our side walks aren't we? I've not done that. Seems like clearing it could make it more dangerous because then you'll have slick ice and go boom on concrete rather than snow. I guess I'll clear it off and lay down some sand?
I'm not even worried.
Yeah, sure, but at the end of the day they stay in Bend. That's quite a hike from there to 41st and Alder.
It is getting slick outside.I went outside about an hour ago in slippers, a sweatshirt, and fleece pajama bottoms to get a package of napkins that I left in my car.
I took one step onto the sidewalk, slipped, and went ass-over-tea kettle backwards and smacked my head on the bottom frame of the fucking bike rack outside our apartment complex. My left slipper went flying backwards through the air, past my head, and I landed on the damn thing, flat on my back.
I think I smacked my right arm on the sidewalk when I landed, because it hurt quite a bit (which eventually went away), and my right index finger hurts like a bitch.
And as I slowly regained consciousness, and the sky stopped spinning and the ring of my head hitting the metal of the bike rack faded away....I found myself wondering if it was really worth it just to get a package of napkins.
It was not. But I crawled to my feet, staggered to my car, and got them anyways.

Clumsy people should stay inside when it snows.
Next...
Ouch! You might have a concussion, how many paws am I holding up?
You roomies with ThePrunetang?
And I will get what I want.
