(no subject)
i went up the road to have breakfast, because i was up and had another errand to run anyway, and found that someone had frosted the neighbourhood while i had not been paying attention. A half inch of snow on top of a half inch of rain that had not managed to run off into the gutters before it froze in place. Trapping some colourful blue flyers underneath the ice, like Brendan Fraser in Encino man or Captain America in the comic book.
When i complained to my da that it was fucking ridiculous weather, he pointed out to me that in Sydney at 0200 it was 32 degrees. "What a coincidence!" I thought, before Faux News told me that with wind chill, Dallas was down (or maybe up) to -2 degrees, so there was no coincidence, because we were well below the point of freezing and the comedy of the same number on differing temperature systems had lost its appeal. I left my Greeks to their slow morning that was leading into a slow day, i slid my way back home.
