freezing rain and caffeine face
this morning was dan-ger-ous. my backyard and driveway was a solid sheet of ice. and by the look of my car, i thought i wasn't going to be able to even open it because it was perfectly encapsulated in a frozen coating. but the door snapped open, so huzzah! i was able to get into it, then spend the next few minutes making sure i could see out the window. freezing rain is kind of silly and unnecessary. would have been much cooler had it been snow, but alas, no. so my decision this morning was rainboots or snowboots. i went with the rainboots with the nonsense frozen rain.
so i just looked up what the hell freezing rain even is, and apparently it starts off as snow. then melts, then supercools, like it takes on superpowers or something. that makes it sound a little bit more interesting.
whoa! how neat does THIS look?? freezing rain is pretty to look at on trees (although if you had to clean off those cars, man, what a bitch). not so fun to walk on when it's on the ground. slip and sliiiiide.
upgrade! i've felt the need to start doing my daily crossword puzzles at the master level. this means no hints. but then in the middle of the game you can cheat and switch to the regular level, so i can make sure i am doing it right. it's a small transition, so maybe someday i will do it with no hints. muahahaha. and also? my lattes are disappearing way too quickly. do i dare upgrade to a venti?!? i'm afraid what that might do to me. but it's either that or i'm thinking of going more than once a day. what to do, what to do. my caffeine habit is growing ginormously. and as such, after switching to the larger size already, my high after finishing is like weee! to the moon! maybe i should do the upgrade without the extra shot. but i love the taste of epressooooo.
i need it to be wednesday so i can get paid so i can pay bills and finish my christmas shopping. i didn't want to have to dive into my savings to cover my vacation losses, but now i'm late on a couple bills. oh well. one of them is the student loan i will probably be paying till death do us part, so whatever. i may throw a bon voyage party the day i make my final payment on that, 50 years from now. and i left my memory stick at home today and that makes me sad. i carry that thing to work every day, i feel like i left part of me home. tears.
weee!
