Post subject: | The End Of The Holiday Season |
this really stinks Everyone in a bad mood and we get negative degrees dropped on us just to accentuate the pain. It was really nice how the holidays lined up this year on a Thursday making it convenient to take Friday off. I cannot remember ever having this much time off while the kids were home. Today, we all pay the price. |

I am sore, will probably go get checked out after lunch. Accident in front of me over a hill and then all hell broke loose. I almost pulled a Kyle Busch sliding by in the median, but got hit from behind by Danica. |

No sir, I stayed in my truck and was thankful not to get hit again. Accidents mess with your head a little bit, I had never been involved in one on the freeway like that, which is amazing considering the miles I drive a year. |

I go by the Jan 15-Feb 15 is usually the harshest time, so you make it through that and you're good That is pretty optimistic. I usually count the first 10 weeks as pretty rough most years, although I have been out golfing by early March about 4-5 years ago. This is a pretty nasty wake up call for 2015 though. |

Today is National Whipped Cream Day. I'll be spinning Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass in the breakroom at lunchtime. Tomorrow is Bean Day. |

It's not unusual to have snow falling on St. Patrick' Day. This is the time to give up all hope until May. |

There is damage to the back end but it is drivable, now just have to go thru the bullshit police report and hoping the person that caused this has insurance. |
