FOG and Hair Crack

So here is a picture of my hair – it’s usually really frizzy. But mom sent me up some Moroccan Oil so I used it today and it already 50% better. I am in love with this stuff.

Also for the last two days it has been super foggy like pea soup. I had an adrenalin rush this morning pulling out of my neighborhood because I have to cross two lanes of traffic and then turn left. I was hoping everyone was driving with their lights on and took a deep breath and then went for it.

I went to lunch today with Lexie and Mells Bells completely pigged out – it was nice.

Episode CVII: “Death to the Weatherman!”

Friday, April 25, 2008


OK so Wednesday the temperature was down right warm at least for us Alaskans. Thursday it was a little chillier but still a relatively nice day I even wore peek-a-boo sandal type shoes. Then this morning it was suppose to rain today but I decided to wear a single strap pair of sandals today on the way to work there were a couple of flurries mixed in with the rain – OK I though well that sucks but not to bad. By ten this morning it was all out snowing and by lunch time I was out brushing my car off in an inch of snow while my piggy toes protested violently. Now at three this afternoon there is about 4 inches on the ground and slightly more on the cars and it shows no signs of stopping. I might even leave 30 mins early from work today. It’s the bloody end of April people this is ridiculous I should sue!

UPDATE! It snowed a total of 18 inches yesterday that’s was just in one day. This morning the world is white and the dog disappeared off the back porch into a snow bank. It was deep enough to lose Yoda (a pug) but you could see where he had been by the movement of the trench. Kelly thinking this was funny decided the cat really needed to experience it as well and the next thing there is a black blur of cat flying out the back door into the snow and then the cat propelled himself back into the house in a matter of seconds.

2ND UPDATE! Well over the last couple of days most of the snow has melted off, there is only about two inches hanging around on the ground but the roads are clear. Weatherman expects all snow to have melted off by weekend – I might even get back into my sandals by the end of the week.



Thursday picture everything brown and no snow really to be seen except in shady areas and then this picture below was taken on Saturday. INSANE!

Episode XLXVIII: “Giggles!”

Well folks I have the giggles today. I am finding the oddest things really funny. Lance has already had to suffer for my amusement. At least he is glad that his miserable day is funny to me and he was able to lift my spirits. No really he is not – he is only 30 minutes into his day and it’s only going to get worse. HA! I’m sorry I find this funny. I have to work tonight ad I don’t find that funny because my knee is just starting to feel better. It’s an old snow boarding injury from a few years ago (thanks Jaime) that would occasionally act up – however since I started the 2nd job it has been continuously hurting. So with this last weekend off it started to feel better. I’m too young to need a knee replacement yet.

UPDATE: So it is three hours into mine and Lance’s day and we are both wanting to kill people. I went out back into the shop in time to see Lance chucking pipe across the warehouse. I snickered and then made a run for it to the relative safety of my office – I guess I am just glad that I am not suffering alone.

Episode X: “Stain Glass World”

First off I did not want to drag my butt out of bed this morning. However when I finally got up and walked into the hallway I noticed it was not as bright as it should have been at 7:45 the morning after the summer solstice longest day of the year. I was too lazy to open a curtain and look though so I got ready thinking it was probably over cast and raining. Then before I went down stairs I open my curtain and window in my room to let the heat out (cause it’s been so hot, you know all of in the 80’s). Once I opened the window though it was like gazing at my city through a stain glass window. There was a yellow hue to everything. On my way out the car I noticed that it was really quite and that there was a smoke smell in the air. Sure enough I got to work and checked the paper and we have several forest fires burning around the state and the smoke tends to be blown into town. It makes the city seem like it’s in a dream state and completely surreal. I kind of like it – sort of a calming feeling.
