Hello, Winter!
Dang it's cold outside today!! 18 degrees when we got up this morning. The high isn't supposed to be much more than that. Wind chill around zero. Tonite's low expected to be around 10 degrees. And we are WARM compared to Denver and points north. -36 degree wind chill in Denver!!! How the heck did I wait for a schoolbus in that crap when we lived there??? Man, central heat and air sure has turned me into a sissy.

Irma's
Dinner with Debbie, Megan and Kelsey at Irma's Burger Shack. Megan ordered grilled jalapenos with her burger. Yeah, that's what I thought. Megan? Ordered something spicy? She said she's "training her tongue" to eat spicy food because alot of stuff is spicy in Midland. Debbie gets cottage cheese when we go there. They serve a hard boiled egg with the cottage cheese. The egg is sitting in the middle of the bowl on top of the cottage cheese. Cracks me up because it looks like a golf ball in her cottage cheese. hee hee. Well, guess you have to be there.
Tried a new beer. Bridgeport Ebenezer. Pretty good winter ale. If you like beer like Sam Adams Oktoberfest, you'll like the Ebenezer.
Have a good evening.

That is all.

Are things getting smaller?
Is is just me, or are things getting smaller in this world?
Toilet paper, for instance. When I was a little kid, a piece of toilet paper seemed as large as a piece of paper towel. One toilet paper square was huge. One square covered my entire hand and backside. I could clean up without using an entire roll of toilet paper. Now, one square barely covers my hand much less my derriere. No stinkin' way one stinkin' square takes care of my stinkin' business now. Speaking paper towels, do they even make a roll with a full square? Maybe it's just the brand Debbie buys, but the roll is made so each section is a HALF square. Dangit. When I make a mess, I need a full square to clean up. Not two halves with a partial tear down the middle.
A half-gallon of ice cream isn't even a half-gallon anymore. It's slightly less than a half-gallon. Someone got wise and decided to use the metric system of measurement so we don't notice that we are getting less than a half-gallon. But we are.
A 12 ounce can of beverage isn't even a 12 ounce can anymore. It's 355 milliliters. Oh wait. I just did the math. 355 milliliters is pretty much 12 ounces. There is some rounding up going on to get to 12 ounces, but not much. Never mind. Butt I'm still plenty pissed off about the smaller toilet paper squares, though...
hee hee. Have a nice day.

Blue Christmas
One of my favorite holiday songs. Be sure and have the sound turned up on your computer. The song automatically plays when you get to the website.
