Mrs.J

0.55 here. Had to drive in it later in the afternoon over to Baltimore to pick up the older Ms. J from a film set. Then drove her back down to DC. Driving on 70, 695 and 95 was not fun. The snow pack created a low fog and along with the rain the glare on the highways made it hard to see if you were in your own lane. Only 200 was decent as the reflective striping was still reflective.

41 and drizzle. I am not minding the rain to flush the dirty snow piles away.

Mr. J and I are not natives to MD. But our daughters are. Through them in school we learned the importance of the watershed. I grew up around the Maumee River which empties into Lake Erie and grew up understanding the importance of keeping waterways clean. I have found that those who do not live near their water source seem to think it just exists. Ignoring the surrounding environment. As for making jokes well some people just never grow up and it shows.

This system is causing some serious sinus pain. My whole left jaw is painful to the touch. Gums and teeth have that copper taste due to swelling. Left eustachian tube is plugged. And pressure in my left cheek and temple. Tea did not help so broke down and took Ibuprofen. Should hopefully clear out when the rain pushes through.

Backyard temp of 56.7 here. Lot of snow melt on the deck right now. Actually have the back screen door open for the cats. They are having a good waft.

31 currently. And I think I am going to start rating these cold snaps in bags of bird food. Currently on my 3rd bag since the snow back in January. While it is mainly to feed the birds in the winter it is also cable for our cats. Between suet cakes and the feeder and spreading seed on the snow covered deck they have had a steady stream of action. Even getting the squirrels up which prompts quite the frenzy at the back door.

Nothing wrong with weirdos. Always told our kids they got the short straw with their parents. One a Game Animator and the other an Artist who fixates on weather, transportation, and animals. Always told them if everyone was the same we would live in a very boring place. Must have done something right. One going the film track and the other enjoys studying dead peoples bones.

@AlexD1990 see you are in Lewes, DE. Mr. J and I took a trip back the end of September to DE as we had never been there. Stayed in a lovely AirBB just outside of Rehoboth Beach. We ventured up to Lewes. Visited the lovely museum in town. Had some Kickin’ Chicken in the beautiful park just behind it and then ventured down the streets to a secluded beach down by the Yacht club. Had a great time!

We tend to plan vacations as a family wanting to explore not just a different place but a different culture. Have experienced Costa Rica and last year Eastern Europe. Mr. J and I have been throwing around visiting PR and Belize and after seeing that fun cultural halftime show has it got me wanting to go somewhere.

Well that is not a surprise. That is the type. I was editing to add to my post while you were quoting so will also say the added part here. Why certain men feel that if a woman moves their body a certain way is sexual is on them and them alone. It is as pathetic as the ‘oh but her shoulders aroused me’ crap. Honestly the two Ms. J’s would have a field day with him.

Yep came here to say the same thing. Why certain men feel that if a woman moves their body a certain way is sexual is on them and them alone. It is as pathetic as the ‘oh but her shoulders aroused me’ crap. Honestly the two Ms. J’s would have a field day with him.

Yep! The concert we went to was so diverse age wise. Saw this one live and me and the Ms.J’s were both singing it. I have been to many concerts but the ones that I find the most memorable are the ones that are like a stage show. Beck, The Killers, Pulp and The Flaming Lips stand out for me. That being said David Bowie and The Cure shows were just jaw dropping musically.

You are welcome! We actually saw them in concert for New Years Eve at the Anthem down at the DC Wharf. Amazing show whole family went and we rang in the new year together.

She is a Japanese girl who battles the pink robots of course. Creation of The Flaming Lips a wonderfully entertaining band from OKC.

Morning alarm just came on. One can wish.
