Wednesday Wrandom Wrambling

It's Wednesday and STILL January.  I swear to you, that this has been the longest January on record.

I have a lot of things to blog about.  Like the quick road trip to AZ and the amazing people and experiences I had, the newly in-gagged son and fun wedding plans, the amazing chocolate that came in the mail today, SoCal in March coming up, you know....stuff.  There's some thoughts rattling around, I just haven't found the mojo to write.

And I use the term "write" loosely.  We all know I ain't no stellar writer, I just like to scribble stuff down.  

And by scribble, I mean type.  On a keyboard.

More snow here in Utahard!  It needs to stop.  Really.  Over it.  Done.  Not liking it.  Abhorring it actually.

Yes.  I DO realize I live in Utah and it's winter.  We get snow here.  I know that, I understand that.  Doesn't mean I have to like it.

I decided that even though it rained the whole time in AZ, I could totally live there.  I've come to accept the fact that I am a desert rat at heart.

How does one convert one's spouse to be a desert rat?  Ideas?  Anyone?

'member those hot wheels cars we had when we were kids?  Okay, so my brother had them, but we had this really cool town map that we would play cars on, and then this super cool orange track we could race them around on.  'member the tires on those cars?  Slicks that just rolled and rolled and rolled?

That's what my back tires look like on my Cooper right now.  Didn't realize how fast the miles added up.  It's made for some interesting (translate - scary) driving the past couple of days.  It's now parked until they get replaced and I'm back to driving Pete the Pathfinder.  I'm grateful for a friend in the business who is hooking me up with some sweet tires. AND, we get to go shoot guns together too.  Friday's lookin good.

If this stupid snow will stop.

I gave up shoveling years ago when I jacked my back up.  Then we got this new snow shovel that is supposed to be ergonomically correct or something, and the user's back shouldn't ache.

They lie.

I have numerous friends who love their cats.  Don't tell anyone, but my heart is softening ever so slightly.  ICK.  Soft heart?  What the aitch is wrong with me?

Enjoying the Biggest Loser this season.  They have good contestants but more importantly, they have incorporated some kids on the show and focusing on childhood obesity.  Love it!  Even have Splenda Daddy on the bandwagon and watching it with me.

I just realized that we have our "shows" we have to watch together each night.  

I realize that's somewhat pathetic.

Pretty excited for the Superbowl on Sunday.  I follow football very minimally, but this year, what with the fantasy team and all - I've been a bit more engaged.  And as always, we have the best food, all the kids around and generally a great time.  Even gonna skype in the SoCal kids.

I love Skype.

Although, I think I could like Facetime just as much.  Smart phone Splenda Daddy?  Pretty please??

Looking outside....it's still snowing

*sigh*

Gonna play paper, scissors, rocks with myself to see if I brave the shovel again.

Peace and blessings, yo
