April Showers

This year are in the form of snow.
Hopefully the State High School League will cancel/reschedule the baseball games scheduled for today and tomorrow. Just saying.

midnight ramblings 2007

Sticky, Sloppy and Cold

If only it really were an April’s Fool  Joke. As I’ve said before, the good thing about March snow is that you are certain that it won’t last long. April snow is even shorter lived.
That doesn’t change the fact that we’ve had snow on the ground now for over 4 months straight. That’s a long [...]

Gritting my teeth

And pressing my lips together firmly to keep the screams from coming out.

That is all.

Saturday Phot Scavenger: uh….

“I’m Dreaming of a White Easter?”
March snow never lasts long. Spring will really come. Eventually.
When I went to bed last night around 11:30, I thought we were done with the snow. But I awoke to find another couple of inches freshly fallen. It’s heavy and wet and sticks to everything.
And, no. For the record, I [...]

Holly Cole at The Dakota

I am so glad I spent the money on myself to go to hear her! I probably didn’t need to splurge on a Walleye Cesear and a scotch, but I did anyway.
As the set started I realized that I haven’t been to see live Jazz since I was in New York City in 2000. That [...]

spring

Yesterday the temperatures hit the 40’s around here. Today, they said maybe even the mid-40’s. The snow is beginning to melt. Little tufts of garden plants beginning to show.
I will be in a class (inside) from 8-5 again today. And then a mad dash to church for the Wednesday night “usual.”
I’m yearning to be out [...]

End of Meteorological Winter

According to our Minnesota Public Radio weather office, this was the last weekend of meteorolgical winter. Astronomical winter doesn’t end until March 21 but apparently, in this part of the world, the weather is finally going to start being spring. Today, cooperated a bit. The high this afternoon was 38 degrees. It did feel nice. [...]

not counting wind chills

Maybe we shouldn’t take a road trip to visit a college campus this weekend?

seriously

It’s a deep freeze up here.
6 above zero with a wind chill of -7.
Last Tuesday’s snow still isn’t plowed completely and we’re getting more today. Although I’m glad I don’t live in Duluth. For many reasons. But my cousin who lives up there said they got 17″ on Tuesday.
Yesterday when I went to choir I [...]
